'''Useful tip:''' If you are waiting in the cold at ULB for a bus to get back to the city center (towards ''De Brouckère'') and it doesn't come or you fear it will be too crowded, you may want to take it in the other direction instead (to ''Delta'', a few stops away). ''Delta'' is actually a metro station on line 5, which also goes to ''Gare centrale'' and ''De Brouckère''. | |||
