CET-Rio will implement a traffic operation starting this Sunday (July 19th) in Realengo, in the city's West Zone, to facilitate the macro-drainage works being carried out by the Rio-Águas Foundation. To perform the work, the section of Rua Bernardo de Vasconcelos closed to vehicle traffic, between Estrada General Canrobert Pereira da Costa and Rua Cardoso Martins, will be extended.

With the road closure, traffic will be diverted via Avenida Santa Cruz, where a two-way traffic system will be temporarily implemented, allowing vehicles to return via Rua Cardoso Martins. The entire area will have specific signage to guide drivers and pedestrians about the changes. CET-Rio agents and traffic operators will be working in the area to monitor road conditions and maintain traffic flow.

CET-Rio technicians at the Operations and Resilience Center (COR-Rio) will monitor traffic flow via cameras and, if necessary, will make adjustments to the traffic light programming to maintain traffic flow in the area. CET-Rio recommends that drivers use alternative routes whenever possible and pay attention to the signage and instructions from traffic officers.
