Câmara de Loures garante que vai continuar a derrubar barracas no Talude Militar

The Loures City Council, led by Mayor Ricardo Leão, is committed to continuing the demolition of illegal structures in the Talude Militar neighborhood. Despite ongoing challenges regarding land ownership, the municipality aims to remove all unauthorized constructions. The council previously initiated a large-scale demolition operation in July 2025, targeting 64 precarious buildings, but faced legal obstacles that halted the process. Additionally, Leão announced plans for a public tender in early 2027 to construct a retention basin to mitigate flooding risks in the area, with an investment of three million euros. Improvements to drainage on National Road 10 are also planned.
