Everything changes this Thursday: Metrobus arrives at Coimbra-B and Baixa is "upside down"

Notícias de Coimbra10 September 2026 at 07:16

Coimbra's metrobus will expand from this Thursday to the Coimbra-B area and to Praça da República, in a significant change to the city's mobility. The operation will require a complete reconfiguration of the area, significantly altering traffic in Coimbra's Baixa.

The expansion of the metrobus system represents a profound change in the city's transport structure, affecting one of the most central and busiest areas. Praça da República, one of the city's main landmarks, will be one of the areas most impacted by these changes.

Passengers and residents of the area will need to adapt to these changes, since the expected reconfiguration will leave the Baixa "upside down", as the title states. This operation marks another phase in the implementation of the metrobus system in the district capital of Coimbra.
