National Authority Rejects Fire Safety Projects

The National Emergency and Civil Protection Authority (ANEPC) has rejected the fire safety projects for three metro stations in Portugal. This includes two stations in Lisbon, which are still under construction, and one station in Vila Nova de Gaia, which has been operational since June.

Despite the ongoing operations, the authority's decision raises concerns about the adequacy of safety measures in public transport systems.

Implications for Commuters

The rejection of these projects highlights critical issues regarding public safety and the need for compliance with established safety standards.

Next Steps

The authorities will need to address the deficiencies identified by ANEPC to ensure that the metro stations meet the necessary safety regulations before they can operate fully without concerns.
