Ponta Delgada

The Estrada Regional 211 between Ponta Delgada and Sao Vicente was reopened on 7 October 2024 and now nothing stands in the way of a walk between these two places …

After a storm at Christmas 2020, the road was badly damaged and has not been open to the public since. The section of the road at Sítio dos Lagares had completely collapsed.

Following the dismantling of an unstable embankment and the construction of a solid concrete wall, the road has now been reopened.
