As part of the construction work on the urban section of the Avenida Aeminium – Hospital Pediátrico Metrobus, which is being carried out by Infraestruturas de Portugal, the streets Henriques Seco and Augusto Rocha will be reopened from Wednesday, April 2.

From this date, underground infrastructure work will be required at the intersection of Rua Lourenço de Almeida Azevedo and Rua Pedro Monteiro, with the latter being closed for a period of approximately 60 days.

The image shows the layout of the alternative road circuits during the work. All pedestrian circuits will remain in operation.

Therefore, during this period, it will no longer be possible to access Rua Pedro Monteiro from Rua Lourenço de Almeida Azevedo, and access will only be via Rua de Tomar.

The traffic flow between Praça da República and Cruz de Celas will be via Rua Lourenço de Almeida Azevedo, Rua do Instituto Maternal and Rua Augusta, which will remain a two-way street.

The traffic flow between Arcos do Jardim and Cruz de Celas will be via Rua Infantaria 23, Rua de Santa Teresa, Avenida Afonso Henriques, Rua Henriques Seco and Rua Augusto Rocha.

There will be no changes to traffic flows in the opposite direction.

This restriction involves relocating the existing SMTUC bus stop on Rua Pedro Monteiro to the one already on Rua Augusto Rocha. On this street, there will be three parking spaces reserved for picking up and dropping off patients for the Celas Health Centre, especially those with reduced mobility, for an expected period of around 2 weeks, until the spaces are moved to within the perimeter of the building and ramps are built for users with special mobility needs.

Pedestrian circulation will be ensured, as well as the circulation of emergency vehicles and access to the Jardim da Sereia car park.

The works to be carried out are as follows:
 - Interventions in the infrastructures of Águas de Coimbra, namely in the residual drainage and storm drainage networks;
  - Road paving;
  - Signage and safety.

Considering the various constraints inherent to the ongoing work, within the scope of the construction works of the Metrobus infrastructure, it is recommended to use auxiliary navigation means, such as Waze and Google Maps, where the constraints are included, thus being able to always know the best route in real time.
