Coming to Brussels by car
Coming to the PRACE offices by car is the least recommended option as we are located in the city centre which is busy and has access restrictions for certain types of vehicles. The area is also subject to demonstrations and extensive road works.
We can accommodate only a very limited number of cars in the parking of the building, so you are kindly requested to make sure your PRACE contact who is organising the meeting has booked one of these slots for you.
