Route du Soleil

The Belgian part of the E25 is also denoted as 'Route du Soleil'. This title isn't accepted by France because it isn't the original 'Route du Soleil' that runs from Paris to Marseille. This is a branching of the original route, starting in Amsterdam and ending in Marseille. This route joins the E25 near Utrecht(NL) and stops following it near Lyon(FR).
