The Consolidated Annual Report for 2017 outlines, in a detailed and thorough manner, the activity of Metropolitano de Lisboa, Ferconsult and Metrocom, as well as the results achieved by these companies during that period. For Metropolitano de Lisboa, at its very start, the 2017 financial year was characterized by the conclusion of the corporate transition process, from the model previously implemented by “Transportes de Lisboa” to a model of separation of the companies involved, with Metropolitano de Lisboa’s consequent autonomous management. Consequently, the company was subject to a reorganization through the implementation of a new organization model deemed appropriate to achieve its objectives, including the resurgence of investment in infrastructure and in rolling stock reconditioning, as well as the expansion of the workforce, which has been increasing in light of the current demand needs. At the same time, customer focus was strengthened at Metropolitano de Lisboa, with progressive improvements in operational performance and a consequent increase in the quality of the service provided. In this context, internal and external personnel have been recruited to meet operational needs. In the area of infrastructure, the six-car platform extension refurbishment work in Arroios station was initiated, being the last station in these conditions, as well as some stations’ re-qualification and modernization, regarding lighting, cleaning, refreshing and equipment and signage improvement. Simultaneously, with the beginning of the Expansion Project Studies between Rato and Cais do Sodré, contracted to the affiliate Ferconsult, a new phase of network expansion was launched. The implementation of this diversified set of measures started a new cycle in the life of Metropolitano de Lisboa, now marked by an atmosphere of stability and social harmony, engaging in an open dialog with the Workers’ Council and other Workers’ Representative Organizations, which is deemed essential for the company’s normal operation and to increase the quality of the service provided every day to the Customer. In a different context, we sought to stimulate innovation by creating a specific unit for such purpose, seeking new solutions arising from the economy and the sector’s increasing digitalization. Thus, in 2017, we sought to change Metropolitano de Lisboa’s attitude and behaviour enabling it to confirm itself as a more flexible public company, with renewed momentum, an increased market focus and conditions ensuring greater future sustainability to be able to strengthen its contribution to competitiveness and Lisbon’s quality of life. The expansion, in the project phase, connecting the Green and Yellow lines in a circular line, the beginning of the modifications to the signalling systems, the procurement of new rolling stock and the overhaul of a large number of systems and components will provide a challenge to all of Metropolitano de Lisboa’s workers and executives, representing a necessary step up for the company’s future sustainability and making an effective contribution to improving the city’s quality of life and competitiveness, with a significant impact on the mobility of its citizens. Regarding Ferconsult, the Board of Directors continued the strategy defined in 2016, the results of which are also shown in this report. Within Ferconsult’s ongoing development plan for the period 2017-2021, we implemented a new organization structure, more appropriate to existing market opportunities, using Metropolitano de Lisboa’s shared areas and ensuring the company’s knowledge and know-how in the fields of transport engineering consultancy, studies and projects. 4 Nature of the Report Pursuant to the applicable legal and statutory provisions, the Board of Directors of Metropolitano de Lisboa, E.P.E. hereby presents the Consolidated Annual Report and Accounts for the year 2017, having chosen to present, in light of paragraph 6 of article 508-C of the Portuguese Companies Code (PCC), a Single Annual Report, which, in accordance with all applicable legal requirements, shall allow for a practical and integrated full analysis of the information made available therein. The Consolidated Annual Report comprises the information regarding the Group Companies and has been prepared in accordance with the International Integrated Reporting Council (IIRC)

  • Espaços Infraestruturais E Vacância: Traços Diacrónicos Na Formação Do Território Metropolitano De Lisboa
    Finisterra, LIII, 108, 2018, pp. 135 -159 ISSN: 0430-5027 doi: 10.18055/Finis12057 Artigo ESPAÇOS INFRAESTRUTURAIS E VACÂNCIA: TRAÇOS DIACRÓNICOS NA FORMAÇÃO DO TERRITÓRIO METROPOLITANO DE LISBOA João Rafael Santos1 RESUMO – A formação do território metropolitano de Lisboa assentou numa com- plexa articulação entre o suporte fisiográfico e hidrográfico e o traçado de diversas redes infraestruturais, nomeadamente rodoviárias e ferroviárias, aterros e espaços portuários, limites e estruturas militares. Dessa articulação resultaram espaços de interface com tecidos urbanos de diversa natureza. A sua reconstituição e interpretação cartográfica permite descodificar as lógicas subjacentes aos processos de territorialização que, frequentemente, coexistem e se sobrepõem, resultantes também de alterações de uso e de racionalidade programática. Numa perspetiva diacrónica, revelam -se os traços da sua transformação: adi- ções, justaposições, mas também persistências, subtrações e demolições. Alguns resultam fragmentados e desagregados, restos de estruturas que se perderam no esteio de mudanças tecnológicas e funcionais, descontinuados no espaço e no tempo. Espaços vacantes na atualidade, constituem áreas de oportunidade para intervenções tópicas, temporárias e imprevistas em lógicas de maior formalidade. Neste sentido, o artigo propõe uma leitura dos processos de infraestruturação do território metropolitano de Lisboa, focando -se no solo portuário e industrial e nas coroas de circulação, demarcação militar e equipamento da capital, articulando -a com o reconhecimento de espaços vacantes na atualidade. A partir desse confronto, propõe -se uma interpretação territorializada das relações entre infraestru- turação e produção de vacâncias segundo uma pauta tipológica e temporal. Palavras -chave: Infraestruturas; espaços vacantes; áreas metropolitanas; Lisboa. ABSTRACT – INFRASTRUCTURAL SPACES AND VACANCY: DIACHRONIC TRACES IN THE SHAPING OF LISBON’S METROPOLITAN TERRITORY.

  • 10 – Eurocruise - Porto Part 4 - Heritage Streetcar Operations
    10 – Eurocruise - Porto Part 4 - Heritage Streetcar Operations On Wednesday morning Luis joined us at breakfast in our hotel, and we walked a couple of blocks in a light fog to a stop on the 22 line. The STCP heritage system consists of three routes, numbered 1, 18 and 22. The first two are similar to corresponding services from the days when standard- gauge streetcars were the most important element in Porto’s transit system. See http://www.urbanrail.net/eu/pt/porto/porto-tram.htm. The three connecting heritage lines run every half-hour, 7 days per week, starting a little after the morning rush hour. Routes 1 and 18 are single track with passing sidings, while the 22 is a one-way loop, with a short single-track stub at its outer end. At its Carmo end the 18 also traverses a one-way loop through various streets. Like Lisbon, the tramway operated a combination of single- and double- truck Brill-type cars in its heyday, but now regular service consists of only the deck-roofed 4-wheelers, which have been equipped with magnetic track brakes. Four such units are operated each day, as the 1 line is sufficiently long to need two cars. The cars on the road on Wednesday were 131, 205, 213 and 220. All were built by the CCFP (Porto’s Carris) from Brill blueprints. The 131 was completed in 1910, while the others came out of the shops in the late 1930s-early 1940s. Porto also has an excellent tram museum, which is adjacent to the Massarelos carhouse, where the rolling stock for the heritage operation is maintained.

  • Discover Lisbon with Our Guide!
    The 7th Conference of European Survey Research Association welcomes you to the fashionable city of Lisbon! Lisbon, the most westerly capital in mainland Europe, is one of the few cities in the world to offer a unique natural landscape. It’s for sure one of the most impressively located, with a series of hills facing the Tejo estuary, one of the sunniest and probably one of the least expensive cities to discover. Being a city built on hills, from the various belvederes, installed in the highest points, can enjoy breathtaking views. We highlight the castle of S. Jorge, where we reach the cacilheiros in their crossing to the south bank, the 25th April bridge, Rossio, Carmo convent, Bairro Alto, Eduardo VII park, among other points of the city. Alongside the old city, with a very rich heritage, Lisbon is also a modern city that has been renewed in new cultural and leisure proposals. In this document you can find out more about the places you cannot miss in this city – excursions, restaurants and bars, among others.
