Why It Matters
A tree fell on the road, requiring the intervention of the Municipal Secretariat of Subprefectures to clean it up and free up traffic.
According to the Municipal Secretariat of Subprefectures (SMSUB), teams are working to remove the tree and clean the road, at number 681, to free up traffic.
With the closure, drivers coming from the Center or the Ipiranga region and intending to access Marginal Tietê need to look for alternative routes.
Those heading towards Marginal can continue to Ponte Cruzeiro do Sul, along the avenue of the same name. Another alternative is to access Avenida Santos Dumont towards Santana.
For those who intend to head towards Rodovia Castello Branco, one of the options is to go to the Anhembi roundabout, access Avenida Olavo Fontoura and then enter Marginal Tietê.
The blockade may also affect intercity lines serving cities such as Guarulhos, Arujá and Santa Isabel. Buses that use this section turn around to follow Avenida do Estado, towards Ipiranga, until the Armênia Metropolitan Terminal.
The report contacted Artesp to find out the impacts on intercity lines and is awaiting feedback.
