Elevador do Mercado in Coimbra

I tried asking the Coimbra tourist bureau, but their posted email address doesn't work.

Google Maps says this elevator (part of Rick Steves' Coimbra Walk) is "temporarily closed."

Do you know if this is so? Cheers, Ron

Based on what I could infer from the smtuc.pt website, elevator works were probably completed on 8 August because the upper parking lot was only closed (for elevator works) until then.

Google translation of the article’s headline: Elevator works close the Market's upper parking lot until August 8th.

When we were there we just walked up the hill. It only took an extra five minutes or so.
