During European Mobility Week, several Portuguese municipalities introduced initiatives to promote sustainable transportation. In Aveiro, Mayor Luís Souto announced that ferry services for São Jacinto residents will become free in November. Other measures include one hour of free shared bicycle use and metrobus connections to Ílhavo. Additionally, Transdev Portugal implemented a campaign converting “environmental fines” into free bus trip vouchers to encourage a shift from private vehicles to public transit. The city is also expanding pedestrian zones and reviewing urban circulation plans. In Santo Tirso, free bus services across the Mobiave and UNIR networks were scheduled for September 22 to observe European Car Free Day. The local program included the presentation of new electric buses and a bicycle ride starting from the Fontiscos Business Zone. Other regional efforts include the ‘Águeda Mobilidade + Sustentável’ program in Águeda, which features bicycle repair workshops, energy-generating pedal demonstrations, and an open day at the Clube Viação Clássica. In the Viseu Dão Lafões region, the Rede Mobi planned to provide free travel across 167 intermunicipal lines spanning 14 municipalities to encourage the use of public transport over private vehicles.
