To ensure greater safety and tranquility for fans, the Secretary of Public Safety and Social Defense (Segup), in partnership with other state and municipal security agencies, coordinates the security scheme with the reinforcement of more than 1,500 security agents.
The match, valid for the 32nd round of Series B, is expected to attract around 45,000 fans. The stadium gates and parking lot will open from 4 PM. The scheme set up for the biggest classic in the North aims to ensure public order, maintaining the rights of individuals and property, to provide greater tranquility to the audience attending the match, points out the Secretary of Public Safety and Social Defense, Ualame Machado.
“The Re-Pa was planned by the Security System agencies in advance. More than 1,500 security agents will be deployed, each acting within their responsibilities. The Military Police will handle the visible policing. The Air Group will also conduct aerial patrols using drones,” highlighted the Secretary.
Ualame Machado added: “Regarding mobility, the agencies focused on traffic issues, Segbel, through the Traffic Department, the Highway Patrol Battalion, and the Traffic Department of Pará (Detran) will reinforce traffic management with guidance and inspections,” emphasized the Secretary. We also highlight that this entire strategy aims to ensure more tranquility for families and the general public going to the stadium.”
More security and mobility
The security strategy includes reinforcement in visible policing and inspection of access roads, maintenance of public order and safety in the stadium; the organization of traffic flow to ensure greater fluidity; the agility in serving the population, as well as the presence of the Fans' Police Station and Major Events, in addition to the Women's Assistance Police Station, in case of reporting incidents and assisting vulnerable groups and crimes against women.
Operational actions will begin at 12 PM, with reinforcement in policing around the match location. The gates will be open to the public from 4 PM. The Operational Control and Command Center (CCO) of Mangueirão will gather the focal points of each force, from where it will be possible to monitor the images from the cameras installed in the stadium and its surroundings, thus speeding up responses to operational demands, if necessary.
Street Vendors Area
The Municipal Secretary of Security, Public Order, and Mobility of Belém (Segbel) and the Municipal Guard of Belém will be responsible for guiding, controlling, and inspecting street vendors in the areas outside the stadium. Two areas have been planned for the permitted concentration of these professionals. On side B, the sidewalk in front of the Legal Medical Institute (IML) and the access to the Mounted Police Regiment (RPMONT). On side A, the sidewalk in front of Mangueirinho will be designated for this purpose.
The Municipal Secretary of Economic Development and teams from Public Order (Segbel) will have the support of the Municipal Guard of Belém and the Military Police to control and inspect the areas designated for street vendors, preventing them from occupying places that jeopardize the safety of people and traffic fluidity by positioning themselves in prohibited areas.
Police Units
The units installed at Mangueirão, such as the Event Police Battalion, responsible for maintaining public order at major events, will be fully operational with visible and preventive actions developed by the Military Police troops, as well as the Fans' Protection and Major Events Police Station and the Specialized Women's Assistance Police Station, which will ensure service and agility in reporting incidents, if necessary.
Traffic
With the action of the Traffic Department, Highway Police, and Segbel, there will be organization and fluidity of traffic, aiming to ensure road safety.
The agencies highlight some changes:
• On the Augusto Montenegro highway, the BRT will be closed from Rua da Marinha to the entrance of the Guilherme Paraense Gymnasium “Mangueirinho”;
• Drivers traveling towards Entroncamento - Icoaraci must stay in the right lane and, at the traffic light of Alameda ‘Mangueirinho,’ may access the BRT to reach parking Lot A through the gates of Alameda Mangueirinho and the Parking Gate of Mangueirão on the side of Mangueirinho;
• Drivers traveling towards Icoaraci - Entroncamento may access the three gates on side A;
• On Centenário Avenue from Júlio Cesar Avenue to Mangueirão Avenue (Parking Gate F) will operate in one direction, and Mangueirão Avenue (Parking Gate F) to Augusto Montenegro Highway will operate in both directions with access only for passenger vehicles.
Combating Sexual Harassment
Segup will also develop actions aimed at protecting women, through teams from the Directorate of Public Policies and Social Prevention (DPS), with the dissemination of the protocol “Do Not Stay Silent” and the reporting channels such as the Virtual Women's Police Station and the Women's Assistance Totem. The educational approach to fans will highlight the importance of reporting and combating sexual harassment in public spaces.
