Green Railway Pass arrives in Lisbon and Porto in September: What changes and how it works?

Record31 August 2026 at 10:26

The Green Railway Pass will arrive in Lisbon and Porto in September, expanding mobility options for passengers who exclusively use trains for their commutes. This measure aims to benefit those who do not need to use other public transport means, such as buses or metro.

The pass represents a potentially more advantageous option for users who only make train trips, allowing them to avoid costs associated with transport means they do not use. The expansion to the two main Portuguese cities comes as part of a strategy to reorganize the public transport network.

Details about the specific operation of the pass and access conditions have not yet been fully specified in the article, which anticipates the changes that will come into force shortly in the two metropolitan areas of the country.

How much do you need to earn or have to be among the richest 1% in Spain?

To be among the richest 1% in Spain, the figures vary depending on the metric used: approximately 97,500 euros of gross annual salary, 164,000 euros of total income, or 1.8 million euros in net wealth. The median salary in the country is approximately 24,500 euros, with two out of three workers earning less than 30,000 euros annually. The analysis highlights that salary, income, and wealth represent different realities and cannot be equated, since wealth can be accumulated over time and passed on through inheritances, while work income is limited by the market.

Works in the Alvor-Bravura Irrigation Perimeter promise to cut water losses by 60%

The Minister of Agriculture and Sea, José Manuel Fernandes, visited on August 28 the modernization works of the Alvor Hydro-Agricultural Development, in the Alvor-Bravura Irrigation Perimeter, in the Algarve. The interventions, funded by 15 million euros through the PRR, will allow reducing water losses in the system by approximately 60%, which equals savings of about 19 million cubic meters per year and approximately two million euros annually. The first phase includes the construction of a new reservoir, pumping station and filtration station, as well as the modernization of two kilometers of the main carrier channel and installation of photovoltaic panels for energy efficiency. The infrastructure, associated with the Bravura Dam built in 1958, serves an irrigation perimeter of about 1800 hectares. The minister also announced a second phase estimated at 40 million euros and defended that investment in irrigation modernization is essential to guarantee intelligent water management in a territory marked by water scarcity.
