PCP proposes 20-euro monthly transit passes nationwide
The Portuguese Communist Party (Partido Comunista Português or PCP) has proposed fixing the price of intermodal transport passes at 20 euros for the Lisbon and Porto metropolitan areas, as well as other intermunicipal communities. The party argues that the state must provide the necessary funding to ensure this price point, particularly as the government introduces new rail-only passes.
António Filipe is a long-serving member of parliament for the PCP (Partido Comunista Português) and a specialist in constitutional law, who has served as a vice-president of the Assembly of the Republic. He was the PCP-backed candidate in the 2026 presidential election.
