The Rio de Janeiro Traffic Engineering Company (CET-Rio) will implement a special traffic operation for the Vasco vs. Santos match in the Brazilian Championship, which takes place at 4 pm on Sunday (August 16th) at the São Januário stadium, in the Vasco da Gama neighborhood. Traffic closures will begin at 10 am on Francisco Palheta Street, between São Januário Street and Ricardo Machado Street; Roberto Dinamite Avenue, between Ricardo Machado Street and Dom Carlos Street; and Ferreira de Araújo Street, between Dulce Rosalina Street and Roberto Dinamite Avenue.

Starting at noon, other streets surrounding the stadium will be closed according to the operational plan.
