Elsene

List 1 Ps-Vooruit

Ixelles is one of the most beautiful, but also one of the most expensive municipalities in Belgium to live in. There is great inequality and due to rising rent and housing prices, life in the municipality is becoming unaffordable for more and more people.

Vooruit strives for an Ixelles for all Ixelles. This means that we also involve the many non-Belgian residents in local politics. And that we motivate them to use their right to vote. To this end, we conducted an ‘I Vote Where I Live’ campaign and we are convinced of trilingual (NL-FR-EN) communication to the Ixelles.

An Ixelles for everyone also means that there must be better service in Dutch from the municipality. At the counter, but also in education. We are a driving force behind the first Dutch-speaking municipal school in Ixelles, which will be built in 2024. The Dutch-speaking culture and community benefits from the proper functioning of the Ixelles community centre and the Sans Souci library, which are explicitly open to speakers of other languages.

High time for underground waste containers in Ixelles.

Vooruit Ixelles wants a better cleanliness policy by doing away with rubbish bags and going for underground containers in abundance. Brussels is too beautiful to be full of rubbish.

Why do many European cities use underground waste containers to collect household waste, while we, as the capital of Europe, are left with garbage bags on the streets?

Do you agree with this? Then vote List 1 - Forward on 13 October- Municipal Council elections.

#VoteVelo - for better cycling infrastructure in Ixelles

More and more Ixelles residents are taking to their bikes to get around, but the cycling infrastructure is not yet growing with them.

After the separated cycle lanes at Kleine Ring and General Jacques Avenue, it is high time for more safe infrastructure at Kroon and Louisalaan. This will allow everyone to cycle safely without having to slalom between cars.

We prioritise public transport and more space for cyclists and pedestrians. This can only be done by redistributing public space and making way for more segregated cycle lanes.
