“Crazy Morning” This is how motorists and train users viewed the chaos on the 25 April Bridge this Saturday due to traffic jams and interruptions in the Fertagus rail service for several hours.
At the northern entrances to the bridge connecting the municipalities of Lisbon and Almada, the queues of cars reached several kilometers. But there were also traffic jams at the entrances to the south. At the beginning of the day it was still quite difficult to drive to the bridge from Sete Rios, Monsanto, Amoreiras and Ceuta Avenue.
A source from Infraestruturas de Portugal said that “the appeal was suspended at the direction of the authorities.” In turn, Fertagus said that the cessation of traffic from 6:20 to 11:25 between Pragal and Roma Areiro was the result of an “incident”. Traffic on the North-South line was limited to one lane from 10:40 to 11:30. Restrictions, you know cmwould have arisen as a result of walking on the bridge, namely in the area of the railway, by an unauthorized person, who after some time was removed from the site.
