The Government published this Tuesday a new decree for public transport aimed at ending existing asymmetries and strengthening passenger guarantees. The legislation covers train, bus, and boat services, establishing more balanced rules for all modes of transport.
The new regime strengthens user rights, ensuring more consistent protections regardless of the transport mode used. This change comes to address gaps that existed in previous legislation, which treated different types of public transport unequally.
The Authority for Mobility and Transport (AMT) sees its enforcement powers strengthened with this decree. The regulatory entity will now have a heavier intervention in supervising compliance with the new rules, ensuring more effective application of the guarantees granted to passengers.
