Carvalha Roundabout is located in the urban area that bears its name, in the parish of Fânzeres e São Pedro da Cova, part of the municipality of Gondomar. This point serves as a central element in the local road structure, positioned on Avenida da Conduta, an artery that crosses the area and provides access to various residential and commercial areas.
The area surrounding Carvalha Roundabout recently underwent an urban requalification intervention. This project's main objective was the improvement and valorization of the public space, focusing on its functionality and the user experience. The works aimed to modernize the area, making it more welcoming and adapted to the circulation needs of residents and visitors, both on foot and by bicycle.
The requalification brought a notable aesthetic and comfort improvement to Carvalha Roundabout and its immediate surroundings. New pedestrian paths were created and a bidirectional bike lane was integrated at sidewalk level, facilitating the use of soft transport modes. The installation of modern urban furniture and the planting of new vegetation contribute to a more pleasant environment, inviting a brief pause. Furthermore, the new public lighting system enhances safety and highlights the beauty of the space during nighttime, giving it a more inviting atmosphere.
