The replacements are due to continue until the end of September 2026. According to the minister, the first measurements would already show that the adapted trains now have a vibration level comparable to that of the other metro trains. She also indicated that STIB-MIVB was discussing with the manufacturer the preventive replacement of other wheels from the same supplier, even when the observed vibrations are not problematic.",[11,32,33],{},"The MPs nevertheless insisted on the need to objectify the results and to communicate the measurements clearly to residents. Sofia Bennani pointed out that other local residents, particularly in Anderlecht and Etterbeek, are also experiencing this nuisance, this excessive noise and these excessive vibrations, without necessarily having the means to initiate legal proceedings. Amélie Pans asked whether the final results would be communicated to local residents and whether STIB-MIVB could obtain compensation linked to the defects observed. The case therefore remains under scrutiny, with one central expectation: measurable, transparent and lasting results.",[11,35,36,37],{},"See ",[15,38,41],{"href":39,"rel":40},"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=au4JrjbqOWc",[19],"07/07/2026 - Commission Mobilité - Commissie Mobiliteit",{"title":43,"searchDepth":44,"depth":44,"links":45},"",2,[],"On Tuesday 7 July 2026, Sofia Bennani and Amélie Pans questioned Mobility Minister Elke Van den Brandt about the noise and vibrations linked to M7 metro trains in Brussels.","md",{},true,"/news/2026-07-07-questions_parlement_m7.en",{"title":6,"description":46},"news/2026-07-07 questions_parlement_m7.en",1783441844637]
