The IP3 will face closures in several sections between Coimbra and Viseu next week. This disruption is due to maintenance work on the expansion joints of the bridge over the Dão.

In addition, a project to duplicate the IP3 segment between Santa Comba Dão and Viseu is ongoing, which will contribute to the traffic disruptions.
