Upstream, without a motor

Diário de Coimbra5 September 2026 at 12:00

António Cabral de Oliveira signs an opinion article in which he criticizes the requalification of Avenida da Guarda Inglesa, considering that the pavement of this road is still in good condition.

The author draws attention to the situation of Rua Infantaria 23, near Santana, which remains degraded, classifying this situation as regrettable.

The article suggests that public resources are being misapplied, with investment being made in the renovation of a road that does not need intervention, while another road continues to urgently need works.

The article's title, "Upstream, without a motor," suggests a criticism of the lack of direction or progress in urban management decisions.
