The Mondego Mobility System entered its second phase this Tuesday, with the opening of the Metrobus connections. Coimbra thus becomes an example of sustainable urban mobility in Portugal. The Minister of Infrastructure intends to replicate the "Metrobus effect" throughout the country. The project represents an alternative to traditional transport, offering a more efficient and ecological solution for citizens. The expansion of the system in Coimbra demonstrates that this model can serve as a reference for other Portuguese cities looking to improve their public transport networks.
