Lisbon Metro Reopens Telheiras Station

The Lisbon Metro has successfully reopened the Telheiras Station and the connection from Campo Grande to Cidade Universitária on the Yellow Line, starting from 06:30 today. This reopening was initially scheduled for tomorrow, but thanks to the dedication and commitment of the teams, the work was completed ahead of time to minimize disruptions for customers.

Key Highlights of the Work

  • Early Completion: The teams finished the works sooner than anticipated.
  • Reopening Time: Services resumed today at 06:30.
  • Strategic Planning: The Metro scheduled these works during the holiday period to lessen the impact on users.

Project Details

The construction activities took place between August 3 and 18, focusing on improvements at Campo Grande Station. This marks a significant step in the ongoing expansion and modernization projects aimed at providing a more efficient and rapid service, which includes increasing train frequency and reducing waiting times.

This work is part of the "Circular Line" project, which extends the Yellow and Green Lines (Rato/Cais do Sodré) and is a key investment for enhancing mobility in the Lisbon metropolitan area.

The Lisbon Metro planned these works for August, anticipating a typical decrease in demand during this time of year, and is implementing measures to minimize impacts on customers.

The Metro expresses gratitude for customer understanding, emphasizing that the ongoing expansion and modernization plan is crucial for improving public transportation and achieving national decarbonization goals by 2050.
