The N6 is a national route in Belgium that connects Brussels with Mons and the French border near Quévy.[1]

The road is one of the 9 major national routes and starts at the Brussels inner ring road. It goes southwest through the major suburb Anderlecht. The road crosses the Brussels Ring road, R0 before shortly entering Flanders. In Flanders, it only passes the midsized city Halle. Just south of Halle, the road enters Wallonia, passing cities like Tubize, Soignies and the E42/E19 highway before reaching the major city of Mons, the capital of the Hainaut Province. After Mons, the road directs south to connect the city with the French city Maubeuge. The road ends at the border in Quévy.

The N6 crosses or borders 11 municipalities. 2 in the Brussels Capital Region, 3 in Flemish Brabant, 2 in Walloon Brabant and 4 in Hainaut. A full list of municipalities[2] can be found below. Major municipalities are in bold.
