A Transport Strategy for Portugal
Urban Transport XVI 3 A transport strategy for Portugal N. M. Gomes Rocha1,2 1Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto, Portugal 2PROEC – Projectos, Estudos e Construções Lda., Portugal Abstract During the 2009 Portuguese general election, transport infrastructure construction was a decisive theme. Where should a new international airport be built? What new highways are reasonable? Should Portugal be connected with European high speed train network? Every political opinion-maker has a perception about these issues. Discussion was even inflated because of global and internal economical recession. Previously established decisions were modified or questioned. For similar problems it is possible to find numerous solutions. Each study is considered as a political answer rather than technical. Transport infrastructures are analysed as a potential economical development model redefinition. Until now, an internal mobility paradigm for passengers and logistics is sustained in road transportation. Despite all kind of actions, an involving and unanimous solution seems impossible to be reached. With this paper we are going to analyse two main questions (a new international airport and a high speed train network) and its impacts on the Portuguese transport strategy. We will list intentions for transport and mobility policy contained in elected parties political programs, with no exclusions concerning the author’s political considerations. The list includes proposals for rail, air, road and maritime transport. Two main questions are going to be analysed according to the international state of art, European and National strategic guidelines and validated data evaluation. This information will be used to develop a theoretical model for transport in Portugal. -

Passenger Land Transport in Portugal: Improving Competition by Legislative Reform
Draft Paper, 14.06.2005 Passenger Land Transport in Portugal: Improving Competition by Legislative Reform José Luís Moreira da Silva Ana Pereira de Miranda Ana Sofia Firmino 1. The Past 1.1 Introduction The Portuguese Transport Sector tends to differ from what prevails in other countries in the European Union ("EU"). Legislation and regulations are very disperse and fragmented and important differences are shown from mode to mode and even from city to city. While under previous legislation (the Regulamento dos Transportes Automóveis, "RTA") all public transport was considered as “public service” and no new entrants/operators were allowed into the transport system, the Framework Law for Land Transport (Law no. 10/90, of 17 March also known as Lei de Bases do Transporte Terrestre, "LBTT") changed the notion of “public service obligation(s)” as well as the idea of “compensation” for the compliance of such obligations. The general Transport System (by mode of transport) framework can be summarised as follows1: - A State-owned company (METROPOLITANO DE LISBOA) carries out the underground transport in Lisbon; 1 Source: MARETOPE - Gerir e Avaliar a Evolução Regulamentar. Operações Locais de Transporte Público na Europa, TIS.PT, CONSULTORES EM TRANSPORTES, INOVAÇÃO E SISTEMAS, S.A., and SIMMONS&SIMMONS REBELO DE SOUSA, Report "Enquadramento Jurídico-Institucional do Sector dos Transportes nas Áreas Metropolitanas de Lisboa e Porto - Primeira Fase. 1 Draft Paper, 14.06.2005 - State-owned companies on the basis of concession contracts carry out urban transport. Following the implementation of EC Directive no. 91/440/EEC the rail sector was split into an infrastructure manager (REFER), a transport company (CP) and a rail regulator (INTF). -
