ACP wants to bring the end of shared scooters in Lisbon to a referendum

TVI Notícias1 September 2026 at 22:43

The ACP – Automobile Club of Portugal – announced that it intends to bring the question of ending shared scooters in Lisbon to a referendum. The organization argues that Lisbon residents should have the opportunity to decide on the permanence of these vehicles in the city.

The ACP's position comes after a survey conducted by TVI among various Lisbon residents, which revealed that the majority of people surveyed are in favor of ending shared scooters in the Portuguese capital.

However, the article notes that there is also a contrary opinion, with some people considering that these vehicles can represent a good urban mobility solution. For these supporters, the issue is not about eliminating scooters, but rather about implementing greater regulation and enforcement.
