Drivers and pedestrians transiting ACM Avenue should pay attention to changes in traffic in the region which come into effect Wednesday, 1º, in the two-kilometer stretch between the Universal Church, in the area of Bahia Shopping Square, and Commercial Ramos, towards Lucaia. The changes are made because of the construction of viaducts, elevations, cycle lanes and exclusive traffic lanes of the Rapid Transit Bus (BRT) Salvador, whose work in this area is expected to last approximately one year
40 km / h [19659005] will be the speed limit in the points of the highway with entry and exit of BRT work trucks. In the rest of the ACM, the normal speed will be 70 km / h.
The amendments include the reduction of the speed limit from 70 km / h to 40 km / h at certain points of entry and exit of trucks; the relocation of the bus stop in front of WalMart for a distance of 350 meters; the removal of the tip of the Citadel; and the blockade of the access and exit lanes of the Citadel, just after the return of Polly Street.
According to the Superintendent of the Transalvador, Fabrizzio Muller, other changes will be needed during the works. "For the moment, there will be no major changes to the user, but over the next 12 months there may be other changes.
In this first step alterations will mainly affect the routine of pedestrians, since the Camarugipe Cbad will be isolated, making it impossible to cross the main road and the marginal road through the bridges., the movement of pedestrians must be done by the sidewalk of the right side, since the left sidewalk was reduced for the installation of escape routes.
There is no radar surveillance, but it is important that drivers slow down because of safety problems

In addition, the central plot of the avenue will be surrounded by sidings and there will be no space for the movement of people in the place. Fabrizio Muller points out that the weather conditions are very different from those of [[1965-19007]] but it is not possible to take a part of the track without affecting the number of lanes.
Drivers will also be guided by Transalvador agents who will be in place to follow the changes. Despite the reduction of the speed limit, the radars already operating on the road will not be moved on the section of work and, therefore, no fine will be applied to those who exceed the recommended speed. The 40 km / h limit will be informed by means of signs in the most overcrowded areas of heavy vehicles.
"There is no radar surveillance, but it is important that drivers slow down because of safety," the Superintendent warns
