Zero launches platform to monitor night flights and accuses Government of failing promise to reduce noise in Lisbon

Expresso4 September 2026 at 07:56

The environmental association Zero launched a platform to monitor night flights at Lisbon airport. The tool allows citizens to follow real-time data on air movements during the night.

Zero accuses the Government of failing the promise to reduce noise in Lisbon. The association denounces the systematic non-compliance with legal limits on night flights at the capital's airport.

According to data analyzed by Zero, the legal limits were complied with only in two weeks out of a total of 35 weeks analyzed in 2026. This extremely low compliance rate supports the environmental association's accusation of systematic non-compliance.

PCP de Beja demands IP8 road project between Sines and Vila Verde de Ficalho

The PCP of Beja has once again demanded the construction of the IP8 between Sines and Vila Verde de Ficalho with a motorway profile without tolls, accusing PSD/CDS and PS of carrying out "propaganda maneuvers" with the opening of new variants in the region. The PCP's Regional Organization Directorate of Beja (DORBE) states that, 19 years after the concession tender was announced and six years after the opening of the link section to the A26, only two small four-lane sections related to the Beringel and Figueira dos Cavaleiros bypasses have been opened, which, despite representing progress, do not replace the original project. The communists consider that the planned improvement works cannot be considered within the scope of a true main itinerary, arguing that the path to improving accessibility must be a different one. Recently, Infraestruturas de Portugal opened the improved sections between Ferreira do Alentejo and Beja, Santa Margarida do Sado and Ferreira do Alentejo, and Relvas Verdes and Roncão to traffic, with investments of 33.6 million and 30.5 million euros, respectively.
