Next Sunday, June 5th, between 8am and 1pm, the Avenida Marginal will be cut off in the municipality of Oeiras from Caxias.
Next Sunday morning, between 10 am and 1 pm, Avenida Marginal will be closed to traffic in both directions, between Caxias and Praia da Torre. The iconic Marginal will thus be clear for those who want to walk or cycle freely along it, or take advantage of the various family activities that will take place throughout the morning.
The cut of Avenida Marginal takes place precisely in Caxias, where the Passeio Marítimo de Algés ends, and goes to the limit of the municipality of Oeiras with that of Cascais (Praia da Torre). This means that it will be possible to cycle from Lisbon to Cascais without cars and along the sea. It should be remembered that the Oeiras promenade, between Caxias and Praia da Torre, has several restrictions on bicycle circulation during the week and weekend.
For those who don't want to pedal, there will be activities for all ages along the Marginal, such as traditional games, sports experimentation, trampolines and inflatables, fitness classes, health screenings and environmental awareness actions.
The initiative is called Move on the Marginal and it is not the first time it has been held in the municipality. It is, in fact, the 21st edition of an event that invites everyone to enjoy the numerous activities on Avenida Marginal, on foot or by means of non-motorized means of transport. No prior registration is required, the activities take place throughout the morning repeatedly and participation is entirely free.
