Crossover in Ponta Grossa will have change in preferential from this Wednesday (11)
Change in preferential in Ponta Grossa starts this Wednesday (11), at 8am.
Drivers traveling through the central region of Ponta Grossa should be aware of a major change in traffic. From Wednesday (11), at 8am, the crossing of the streets Bonifácio Vilela and Assis Brasil will have a new configuration of preference of passage. The change was announced by Prefeitura de Ponta Grossa and seeks to improve the safety and fluidity of traffic in the region.
With the new organization, the Bonifácio Vilela street will become the preferred route, that is, the vehicles that circulate through it will have priority of passage at the intersection.
The measure will be implemented by the Municipal Secretariat of Citizenship and Public Security (SCSP), through the Traffic Superintendence.
Why will the preference be changed?
According to the City Council, the decision was made after a technical evaluation carried out by the Traffic Engineering team of the municipality.
The study identified the need to reorganize traffic, especially due to the visibility conditions faced by drivers who travel along Bonifácio Vilela Street.
The change is expected to contribute to making the intersection safer, reducing risk situations and providing greater organization to the flow of vehicles.
Traffic agents will be on site to guide drivers
The implementation of the new preferential will begin at 8 am this Wednesday (11). At the same time, teams of the Traffic Superintendence will be at the crossroads to carry out the signage work.
In addition to the interventions, the agents will monitor the movement of the vehicles and provide guidance to the drivers during the initial period of adaptation.
The presence of the teams aims to facilitate the understanding of the new rules of preference and avoid confusion between the drivers who use the stretch daily.
Drivers must redouble their attention
The Prefeitura de Ponta Grossa recommends that drivers be especially careful when approaching the intersection of Assis Brasil and Bonifácio Vilela streets, especially in the first days after the move.
It is essential to observe the signage boards, reduce the speed as you approach the intersection and respect the new preference of passage.
From Wednesday (11), those who travel along Bonifácio Vilela Street will have preference at the intersection with Assis Brasil Street.
The guideline is for drivers to respect the indications of the agents and the signage installed to ensure a safe transition to the new road configuration.
