Lisbon Metro Service Restored
The Lisbon Metro service has returned to normal across all lines following disruptions caused by a worker assembly aimed at discussing safety improvements. The service was interrupted from 10:30 AM to 1:13 PM due to the meeting held at Alvalade station.
Worker Meeting Details
On Wednesday, workers from the Lisbon Metro gathered for a plenary session starting at 11:00 AM. According to a statement from the Federation of Transport and Communications Workers' Unions (FECTRANS), the assembly focused on analyzing safety developments since the derailment incident that occurred on May 24 of the previous year.
Previous Incident
The derailment last year at Alvalade station required the evacuation of approximately 500 passengers from the platform, with two individuals needing assistance due to anxiety attacks. Following the incident, two employees faced disciplinary action, despite the inquiry committee identifying unresolved safety issues.
