The ceremonies commemorating the 50th anniversary of April 25, which will take place throughout the country between today and tomorrow, will affect traffic in some streets, for example, in Lisbon and Porto.

In Lisbon, the military ceremony commemorating the 50th anniversary of April 25, 1974, the Corrida da Liberdade, and the commemorative concerts will affect traffic in some streets in Baixa, Centro, Campolide, Olivais, Ajuda, Benfica, and Carnide, as announced by the City Council on its official website.

Today, April 24, parking is prohibited on Rua do Carmo, Calçada do Sacramento, and Largo da Rua Augusta from 12 pm.

In turn, Alameda da Encarnação (next to Jardim de Santo Eugénio) will be completely closed to traffic on April 24, 25, 26, 27, 30, and May 1, 3, 4, 5, and 6, during the following hours: weekdays from 8 pm to 11 pm, holidays and weekends from 3 pm to 11 pm.

Tomorrow, April 25, parking will be prohibited on Rua do Carmo, Calçada do Sacramento, and Largo da Rua Augusta until 4 pm.

Traffic will be closed on Terreiro do Paço (North side) between 2:30 am and 12 pm. While pedestrian traffic will be prohibited next to Arco da Rua Augusta from 3 am to 12 pm.

From 6 am to 12 pm, traffic will be closed on Avenida 24 de Julho, Rua do Arsenal, Rua do Comércio, Avenida da Ribeira das Naus, Rua da Alfandega, and Avenida do Infante Dom Henrique. As well as from 8 am to 1 pm from Travessa da Boa Hora to Ajuda.

On Rua de Campolide (between Professor Sousa da Câmara, Arco do Carvalhão, and Marquês de Fronteira), traffic will be closed between 11 am and 9 pm.

In turn, the April 25 parade, through Marquês de Pombal, Avenida da Liberdade, and Rossio, is scheduled for 3 pm.

In the city of Porto, car traffic will be affected on Thursday on Avenida da República, in Vila Nova de Gaia, between Rua Rocha Leão - next to the upper deck of Ponte Luís I - and Rua Doutor Ferreira de Macedo, but also between Rua Rodrigues de Freitas and Rua Casino da Ponte, as revealed by the local authority in a statement sent to the newsrooms.

The interruption is due to a Civic Procession within the scope of the commemorations of the 50th anniversary of April 25, in which associations and groups from that municipality will participate, and will take place between 2 pm and 6 pm.

In addition to the aforementioned restrictions, the local authority adds that there will be constraints on adjacent roads.

In turn, the pedestrian zone of Rua Álvares Cabral, in the parish of Mafamude, will be occupied with "the assembly of a stage for a musical moment".

In view of this, the City Council of Invicta "suggests that heavy passenger transport vehicles use the following alternative route (north - south, Porto - Gaia): Avenida Dom João II, Rua Raimundo de Carvalho, Avenida da República (El Corte Inglés), Rua Pádua Correia, and Largo dos Aviadores".
