Porto introduces free public transport for all city residents
Reported byEU Today ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Porto, Portugal's second-largest city, launched free public transport on July 10, 2026, for all residents across metro, buses, trams, suburban rail and river services in the metropolitan area, expected to cost €20–25 million annually and aimed at reducing car use.
Long-term success depends on sustained municipal funding and how demand affects actual cost.
