Oceanic seafront and street in Buarcos return to closing to traffic

Diário de Coimbra12 September 2026 at 18:45

The oceanic seafront and a street in the historic zone of Buarcos will return to closing to traffic. The measure aims to return public space to pedestrians and cyclists.

The main objective is to promote safety and sustainability, both on the seafront in the heart of the city and in the historic zone of Buarcos.

Buarcos is an area with a strong fishing and beach tradition, located on the Portuguese coast. This initiative comes in a context of valuing public spaces for pedestrian and cycling use.

Why this matters

The residents and traders of Buarcos will be directly affected by this traffic restriction, having to adapt to new routes and mobility habits. The measure follows previous attempts at pedestrianization and reflects a municipal trend of valuing pedestrian and cycle public space.
