Aveiro tests closure to traffic on Eça de Queirós Street

SAPO14 September 2026 at 17:51

The Municipality of Aveiro will proceed with a pilot project that provides for the closure to traffic of Rua Eça de Queirós. The street will be closed to vehicle traffic for a week, between September 16 and 22.

The closure test will be carried out within the scope of European Mobility Week, an initiative that promotes more sustainable alternatives for transport and travel in European cities.

The Aveiro municipality decided to implement this pilot project to evaluate the impact of restricting access to this street, likely as part of strategies to reduce automobile traffic in the city center and encourage more environmentally friendly mobility modes.

Why this matters

Residents, merchants, and drivers in Aveiro will be directly affected by this temporary traffic change for an entire week. The initiative is part of European Mobility Week, signaling a possible municipal trend to restrict traffic in urban areas, which may have future implications for local mobility and commerce.

Environment Minister "needs to do more". "If things continue like this, the Portuguese won't be able to cope"

Rui Calafate, a commentator for CNN Portugal, criticized the Portuguese environment minister, stating that she "needs to do more", comparing the actions of Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, who "acted in defense of his populations", with the lack of support that Portuguese people are feeling from their own government. Calafate warned that "if things continue like this, the Portuguese won't be able to cope", suggesting that the Portuguese executive's response to environmental issues is failing its citizens.
