De Werkvennootschap

De Werkvennootschap (DWV) is a Flemish public-law limited company (NV van publiek recht) established by the Flemish Government to coordinate the efforts of the various Flemish mobility actors and to tackle large infrastructure works in a faster and more integrated way. It is a relaunch (doorstart) of Via-Invest Vlaanderen, a private-law company founded in 2006, and it bundles knowledge and expertise that grew within the Participatiemaatschappij Vlaanderen (PMV) and the Agentschap Wegen en Verkeer (AWV). The transformation took place under Flemish Minister Ben Weyts in the Bourgeois government; the Court of Audit (Rekenhof) was critical of its creation. The organisation is deliberately small and agile. Depending on the needs of its projects, it brings in the best experts, working closely on the ground with engineers, architects and landscape architects. This close collaboration generates new insights and solutions for the most complex problems. De Werkvennootschap attaches great importance to consultation, participation and communication with all stakeholders, and upholds an open and constructive dialogue. Its project portfolio includes major works such as the R4 West and East in Ghent, the N60 in Ronse, the Limburg North-South connection, and the raising of bridges over the Albert Canal. Its flagship programme is Werken aan de Ring (Works on the Ring), a large-scale redevelopment, transformation and widening of the Brussels Ring combined with related mobility projects in the Flemish periphery around Brussels, including tram lines such as the Luchthaventram and the A12 express tram, and cycle highways such as F29. The team is led by general manager Wouter Casteels and includes HR manager Inge Schouppe, communications manager/spokesperson Marijn Struyf, stakeholder manager Ief Janssens, company lawyer Tim Bruyninckx, financial manager Anneleen Schutijzer, and a range of integral and technical project leaders, a works coordinator, quality manager, mobility manager and programme manager.
