The Setúbal City Council has begun implementing a new lighting system at three city roundabouts to improve visibility, road safety, and public aesthetics. 

Work is currently underway at the Rotunda dos Ciprestes and Praça do Tratado de Roma, with plans to extend to Praça do Tratado de Lisboa. The project involves directing light toward trees and green areas. The municipality noted that these works, performed by council staff, may cause temporary traffic disruptions and are expected to be completed by October.
