Road circulation on Travessa do Lazareto, in the parish of Santa Maria Maior, will be totally interrupted on September 19th, Saturday. The road closure will last from 9am to 6pm, affecting the section between Rua Dr. Juve and Rua Dr. Pita, according to information provided by Edital 776/2026.

The interruption is due to tower crane dismantling works, which will be carried out by the company Base Insular, Construções, S.A. The intervention is under the responsibility of the Mobility and Traffic Division of Funchal City Council, the entity that issued the edict regulating the operation.

During the intervention period, drivers will need to use alternative routes to travel in that area of the city. Authorities recommend that citizens plan their journeys in advance, in order to avoid inconvenience caused by the temporary road closure.
