September fuel-duty proposal sought an extension to December

Added 18 Oct 2026

On 17 September, Cabinet approved a bill to extend the temporary fuel-duty reduction mechanism until 31 December 2026. The announcement said an extension would not itself create a further automatic tax reduction. This archive records the proposal at that stage; it does not establish its later parliamentary outcome.

If you’re here: Check current pump prices and enacted tax measures before budgeting for a journey; the September proposal did not fix retail prices.

Carris added 29 electric buses to its Lisbon fleet

Added 21 Oct 2026

A government update published on 8 September said Carris had received 29 fully electric buses the previous day, taking its electric fleet to 103 vehicles. Seventy-eight of those buses were acquired with recovery-plan funding. The notice records a fleet expansion, but does not specify routes or guarantee more frequent services.

If you’re here: Check live Carris information for your route; the fleet announcement does not assign the new buses to particular services.
