The president of Carris admitted that it is natural that more legal proceedings from victims of the Glória Elevator accident in Lisbon will emerge. This statement comes following the accident that occurred with the elevator, which connects the Baixa and the Bairro Alto of the Portuguese capital.
The deputy mayor of the Lisbon Municipal Council guarantees that both the municipality and Carris are doing the "maximum possible" to meet the families and victims affected by this incident. The municipal authorities and the public transport company ensure they are working to address the needs of those involved.
The Glória Elevator is one of the most emblematic monuments of Lisbon, functioning as a public transport means and tourist attraction since the 19th century. The accident raised questions about the safety of the city's historical infrastructure and about the responsibility of the managing entities.
