Portugal is investing €95 million, funded by the European NextGenerationEU program, to modernize the signaling system on its Northern Line, which connects Lisbon and Porto. This upgrade aims to digitize traffic control, enhance cybersecurity, and prepare the line for high-speed rail service, including the future Lisbon–Porto high-speed line expected to be operational by 2032. The project is part of Portugal’s broader efforts to improve rail safety, efficiency, and sustainability, supporting the country’s green and digital transition. Key stations such as Campolide, Oriente, Alverca do Ribatejo, and Azambuja are included in the modernization plan.
