On October 28, the signage identifying one of the 86 Emergency Meeting Points across the city of Lisbon was installed in the ISEL parking lot. This initiative is part of the Lisbon City Council’s policy to implement and identify designated safe areas where the population should gather in the event of major accidents or disasters, facilitating the coordination of rescue operations and the assistance provided by emergency teams.
The occasion was attended by representatives from the Lisbon Municipal Civil Protection Service (SMPC) — Margarida Castro Martins, Director of the SMPC Lisbon; Raquel Milho, Head of the Public Prevention and Awareness Division; and engineers Edgar Vaz and Luís Mesquita. ISEL was represented by Vice-President Alexandra Costa, Vanda Pacheco, Head of the Infrastructure and Equipment Management Service, and Paula Castro, Head of the Hygiene, Health, and Safety Unit.
