Carris presents today solution for the future of the Gloria Elevator

SAPO31 August 2026 at 07:37

Carris will present this Monday a new solution for the future of the Gloria Elevator, almost a year after the accident that caused 16 deaths. The presentation takes place on the day that practically marks one year since the disaster that shook the city of Lisbon.

The new project places three fundamental pillars at the center of its concerns: safety, engineering and heritage preservation. These elements will be the main axes of the solution that the transport company will reveal to the public.

The Gloria Elevator is one of Lisbon's historical icons, functioning as a means of transportation and a tourist attraction. Its reconstruction represents a complex challenge that requires balancing modern safety requirements with the maintenance of its historical characteristics.

Oil returns to 90 dollars amid new attacks between US and Iran

The latest exchange of attacks between the USA and Iran, the first in over a month, caused oil prices to rise again above 90 dollars per barrel, with Brent rising almost 2%, to 89.84 dollars. The American army attacked Iranian rocket launchers on Larak Island, in the Strait of Hormuz, allegedly when Iranian forces were preparing to launch mines in that strategic waterway. In retaliation, Iran launched missiles against US bases in Jordan, which were intercepted. Analysts from DBS Bank and Gallo Partners point out that, although a prolonged escalation is considered unlikely, tensions continue to delay the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, key to world oil traffic.
