  • The Maracanã region will have road closures for the Vasco vs. Fluminense match this Saturday.
CET-Rio's traffic management operation around the stadium runs from 18 PM until 1 AM the following day.

The Rio de Janeiro Traffic Engineering Company (CET-Rio) will implement a traffic operation this Saturday (05/09) for the Fluminense x Vasco game in the Brazilian Championship, which will take place at 21 pm at the Maracanã stadium. Traffic restrictions in the area will begin at 18 pm. In addition to regulated no-parking zones, other roads will also have parking restrictions starting at 10 am.
