Road optimisation in NAPE area improves environment for pedestrians and vehicular circulation and increases area and improves quality of green areas
The Municipal Affairs Bureau (IAM) is carrying out optimisation works of pavements and carriageways in Zona Nova de Aterros do Porto Exterior (NAPE area).

Meanwhile, to respond to public needs and avoid repeat excavations, the Transport Bureau (DSAT) suggested straightening and widening of a section of originally bent carriageway from Avenida Dr. Sun Yat-Sen to Rua Cidade de Sintra and adjusting positions of zebra crossings to further facilitate the dynamic flow of pedestrians and vehicles, enhance the traffic environment in the area and improve traffic safety. Recently, IAM and DSAT have introduced the optimisation proposal to the Consultative Committee on Municipal Affairs and the resident and business associations of that area. The construction works will be carried out in phases to reduce the impact on the public.
