Two streets of Silves will be one way

Starting on June 28th, the streets Gago Coutinho and Mirante, in Silves, will be one-way.

This was the day chosen to make official the proposal to change traffic on these two arteries, made by the Municipal Traffic Commission, which was approved on May 20th.

In Gago Coutinho Street, the traffic will be made from South to North, from Serpa Pinto Street to Dr. João Menezes de Barros Street.

On Mirante Street, the vehicles will be able to pass exclusively in a downward direction, from Castelo Street to Cândido dos Reis Street.
