The Gaia City Council is considering new traffic regulations for the northern section of Avenida da República. Following the removal of a segregated cycle lane, officials are set to vote on implementing a 30 km/h speed limit between Rocha Leão street and Rua de Pádua Correia. 

The proposal aims to enhance road safety and address narrow road widths by complementing horizontal signaling. These changes are intended to improve urban logistics, including commercial deliveries and patient transport, while also addressing issues with illegal parking.
