Asa Norte - Esplanada (Lado W)

Suggestion for the route from Asa Norte to the center / Esplanade of the Ministries, on the W side.<p></p><p>The W1 is safer because it is wider and slower than the parallel roads (W3, Eixinho W). In addition, it is only interrupted at SQN 309. On the way back, one can use the W2 (next to W3, behind the blocks 500).</p><p></p><p>Be very careful at intersections. In the roundabouts, drive like the cars. Do not 'cut' or drive against the flow.</p><p></p><p>We know that the streets are still not prepared for bicycles, so try to respect traffic rules as much as possible under the existing conditions.</p><p></p><p>* Do not ride against the flow.</p><p>* Signal all intentions in advance.</p><p>* Avoid sidewalks. If you have to cross one, get off the bike and push it, or ride slowly with MAXIMUM care, giving COMPLETE priority to pedestrians.</p><p>* A helmet is not mandatory, but highly recommended. Reflectors are mandatory. Use flashing lights front and rear at night or in rain.</p><p>* Be kind, even if your traffic companion is not.</p>
