Red Line expansion works can now proceed with new calendar
The government has approved a rescheduling of the timeline and financing for the Lisbon Metro Red Line expansion, clearing the way for the Court of Auditors to grant the necessary visa for the inspection contract. While this removes a major administrative hurdle that had delayed the project, a new completion deadline for the link between São Sebastião and Alcântara has not yet been announced.
