What happened
Cascais Municipal Council is considering installing traffic monitoring cameras and potentially introducing tolls on the Marginal to fund road maintenance costs. The council also plans to build a roundabout at the Parede exit and install speed cameras as part of its road management efforts. The Mayor of Cascais stated that residents of the municipality would be exempt from any tolls if the measure is approved.

Why it matters
The consideration of tolls is being explored as a funding alternative for maintaining the Marginal, which is an important route compared to the A5 motorway. The tolls would be applied to motorists who are not residents of Cascais, though the measure has not been guaranteed for approval.
