The Amora Parish Council has upgraded public lighting on a stretch of Avenida Silva Gomes, between the Amora Rio restaurant and the Paulo da Gama School, installing approximately 25 new lamps.

The Amora Parish Council is continuously carrying out maintenance and improvement works on public spaces throughout the parish. In recent days, operational teams were on site intervening in the section of Avenida Silva Gomes between the Amora Rio restaurant and the Paulo da Gama School.
The intervention focuses on modernizing and expanding the public lighting network in that area, including the replacement and improvement of existing ground-level luminaires, as well as the installation of new freestanding lampposts along the route – totaling around 25 lighting points.
With the advance of autumn and the reduction of daylight hours, the lighting reinforcement is seen as essential to increase road and pedestrian safety. This action aims to ensure that residents and other citizens using Avenida Silva Gomes for leisure activities, sports, or daily commutes do so in ideal conditions of visibility and well-being, both day and night.
This project is part of the local authority's ongoing plan to enhance the urban space and respond to the direct needs of the population, and is carried out in partnership with the Seixal Municipal Council.
