Upon entering a built-up area (localidade) indicated by the N1 'Início de localidade' sign, the default maximum speed limit is 50 km/h, unless otherwise indicated by specific road signs.
You enter a 'Zona 30' when you see the G4a 'Zona 30 km/h' sign. This sign indicates an area where traffic calming measures are in place, limiting the maximum speed to 30 km/h.
A 'Zona de Coexistência' (coexistence zone) is a residential area where pedestrians and vehicles share the space. Vehicles must drive at a very reduced speed, typically not exceeding 20 km/h, and give priority to pedestrians. Signs H46 and H47 mark the entry and exit of these zones, respectively.
No, the 'Zona 30' speed limit remains in effect for the entire designated zone. It only ends when you encounter the G10 'Fim de zona 30 km/h' sign, which explicitly indicates the termination of the 30 km/h zone, not just at the next intersection.
Yes, while 50 km/h is the general limit, specific road signs might impose higher or lower limits within a built-up area. For example, some main urban arteries might have higher limits, or 'Zona 30' and 'Zona de Coexistência' will have lower, more restrictive limits.
By completing Urban Areas & Zones, you will gain stronger rule knowledge, faster recognition of signs and situations, better decision making in traffic scenarios, and increased accuracy on exam style questions used in Portugal. These outcomes directly support higher scoring exam performance.
