Intermunicipal Community of the Leiria Region calls for reduction in accidents on the IC8
The Intermunicipal Community of the Leiria Region is demanding urgent safety interventions from Infraestruturas de Portugal on the IC8 highway, citing five deaths this year. While a 2.4 million euro public tender for long-term requalification studies was published on July 7, with a 720-day timeline, officials are calling for immediate, low-cost measures like central dividers at critical points to prevent accidents now.
