Cities Enforce Weekend Road Closures for Events and Infrastructure

The closures aim to protect event participants to allow crews to complete urgent infrastructure work.

Overview

  • Campo Grande is operating multiple Saturday closures for festas julinas, community events and the XXIII Parada da Cidadania LGBT+, with Rua Barão do Rio Branco closed from 14:00 to 23:00 for the parade.
  • Cuiabá has four temporary blockages over the weekend for infrastructure work and a religious procession, and the mobility agency is keeping Rua Comandante Costa closed through the weekend for Águas Cuiabá repairs.
  • The Maratona Camilo dos Santos will begin at 05:00 on Sunday and run through central, north and northeast routes with most streets blocked temporarily and a planned end around 13:00.
  • Municipal mobility teams are deploying traffic agents, variable message signs and route updates via apps such as Waze to manage detours and altered bus lines.
  • Drivers and public-transport users should expect localized delays, follow agent directions, avoid event corridors and use suggested alternative routes to reduce disruption.
