The road was reopened later in the afternoon, however, the zone is still partially restricted to circulation for safety reasons for motorists, all because of some instability of the small rockface.

While the weather remains unstable, that area is passable, but with some restrictions in the right lane, in the Santo António-Eira do Serrado direction.
