Zero advocates rejection of logistics centre project in Azambuja due to negative impacts
The environmental association Zero has called for an unfavourable environmental opinion on the proposed Aveiras logistics centre in Azambuja, arguing it would increase emissions, noise, and air pollution. The group criticises the project for ignoring rail transport and reinforcing reliance on road freight, calling it a strategic setback for national climate goals. While the project, backed by the Glacier Crown group, has faced scrutiny from regional authorities over seismic risks and land use, the Mayor of Azambuja, Silvino Lúcio, has defended the development, stating it complies with all legal planning requirements and is classified as a project of national interest.
