The Lisbon City Council is currently undertaking work to stabilize the slope in the Graça area after a landslide caused by bad weather, which continues to necessitate the relocation of residents, revealed the councillor for Works. Joana Baptista stated that they are already on site conducting topographic surveys and geological tests, and moving forward with a design/construction procedure for slope stabilization and water drainage. The councillor spoke during a meeting of the Lisbon Municipal Assembly, addressing questions from PEV and BE deputies regarding the landslide and the preventive evacuation of buildings. On February 10, a landslide was recorded in the Graça parish, leading to the evacuation of seven people from three buildings on Rua Damasceno Monteiro as a precautionary measure. According to Joana Baptista, the slope in question is between Rua Damasceno Monteiro and Travessa Terras do Monte, which has a significant area and has previously been addressed by the Lisbon City Council in 2010 and 2017 for consolidation and stabilization. Due to recent adverse weather conditions, another landslide occurred in an area that had not yet been intervened. All residents have been duly informed, and those who were relocated will have to remain so, as the houses still do not meet safety conditions. The outdoor areas of Rua Damasceno Monteiro will also remain closed for now. A major project is underway for the coming months. In this context, BE presented a recommendation for the council to take immediate measures for slope stabilization and containment, which was approved with votes against from IL and CDS-PP. Regarding the impacts of bad weather in the city, Lisbon Mayor Carlos Moedas stated that damage assessments are still being conducted but expects to present this information on Thursday, estimating damages in the millions of euros and emphasizing that the central government must respond. Moedas noted that recent storms caused over 2,000 incidents in the city, highlighting the need to intervene in over 200 streets to fill potholes and emphasizing the General Plan of Lisbon to minimize flood risks. The PS inquired about urban hygiene reforms, as the council plans to extend inter-administrative contracts until December 31, 2026, despite Moedas' management considering the delegation of powers to parish councils as the source of problems. The PSD mayor responded that a transition period is necessary, stating that from 2025, waste collection around eco-islands will be ensured by the City Council. The municipal group of IL questioned the Lisbon Without Wires programme, aimed at removing dead cables from facades and poles, with Urbanism councillor Vasco Moreira Rato revealing that 330 buildings have been intervened and about 37 kilometres of cables removed, with work continuing in the Baixa area and other neighbourhoods throughout the year.
