01/07/2023: the route to Hoboken (route 4) will be closed till the complete renovation, which is not yet planned, maybe something for 2024/2025. Articulated buses will offer a shuttle service. Route 2 (Merksem — Zwaantjes) and 4 (Zwaantjes — Berchem) will be combined and operating with low-floor trams. This means also that no more PCC's will run on routes 2 and 4. In the summer months, a limited number of P.C.C.'s will probably only run on routes 7 and 8.

Due to the poor condition of the tracks and some rail and road works, the tram network is being modified.

Line 4: shortened to Berchem Station (Hoboken — Berchem Station)
Line 9: extended to Silsburg (P&R Linkeroever — Silsburg)
Line 11: shortened to Centraal Station (Berchem Station — Centraal Station)

Due to acute staff shortage, frequency on following lines will be reduced to a 15-minute service:

Line 1: P&R Luchtbal — Zuid
Line 4: Hoboken — Berchem Station (Groenenhoek)
Line 7: Mortsel — Eilandje
Line 8: P&R Wommelgem — Astrid
Line 24: Silsburg — Havenhuis

Although the track works have been completed for some time, service on line 12 will not resume for now due to lack of staff.

20 juillet 2022

Due to the heat (39°), the PCCs did not operate during the day (between 12:00 and 18:00), so that lines 4 and 7 only had a limited timetable, while line 11 did not operate at all.
Eventually the entire tram service had to be discontinued due to various problems with the catenary.

17 janvier 2022

A new terminus 'P&R Linkeroever' will be launched on the site of a new parking building. The new terminus will be served by routes 5 and 9. The old terminus will remain for route 15 and will be renamed 'Regata'.
