This station has been under construction forever!!! I came here several years ago, got my masters, phd and been working fr 4 years. And after all these years when i visited Gent today, this remains the same. Not surprised! I did have small hope.

  4. Was there for the first time in 2016… Still the same, I see

  5. It’s still like that? Last time I’ve been there was around 5 years ago and it was already like that.

  6. There are worse projects, look up for ‘gare de mons’ (perpetual moneypit)

  7. Blind guy here

    still waiting for them to add a rubber matt on the crossing of those three guided lines.

  8. i live here (25y) and barely have a memory of it not being underconstruction

  10. Ik neem nu speciaal treinen zodat ik niet moet overstappen in Sint-Pieters want ik heb al enkele verbindingen gemist door al het rondlopen dat je moet doen. Wat een wanordelijke hoop dat toch is.

  11. >This station has been under construction forever!!!

    Since 2005. Anyway, that part they started to work on in 2021 and should be finished by 2027.

  13. Am I the only one who really hates the new ‘design’? I prefer the old tunnel, this is just a sad concrete mess, everything looks dirty and grey

  14. Part of the reason is financial balancing. Have a lot of money this fiscal year? Speed up construction!

    Not enough on the books? Slow down with it.

    Who pays the real cost? Passengers on one hand, workers on the other.
