Schools in Lisbon are leaking water. Council says it is preparing interventions
Heavy rain on Tuesday 10 November led to the closure of two Lisbon primary schools, Escola Básica Maria Barroso and Escola Básica Luís de Camões, due to flooding and roof leaks. Parents at Maria Barroso report that drainage issues have persisted since 2022 and are awaiting promised municipal works. The Lisbon City Council states it is preparing interventions for these buildings to improve safety and weather resilience, though no specific timeline for repairs has been provided.
Why it matters
If you are a parent with children at these schools, their school day may be disrupted by heavy rain until the council implements the promised structural repairs.PúblicoRead original ↗
