Seixal
Founded: 1836
Area: 95,50km2
Population: 166`525
Seixal is a municipality situated on the southern shore of the Tagus River in Portugal. It is part of the Setúbal District and falls within the Lisbon Metropolitan Area. Located directly across the river from Lisbon, Seixal enjoys the advantages of its proximity to the capital while preserving its unique character. Its advantageous position and well-developed transportation network make Seixal a vital component of the Lisbon metropolitan region, providing residents and visitors with easy access to both urban facilities and natural sites.
Seixal is efficiently served by multiple public transportation options. The Fertagus commuter rail line operates in the area, with stations like Fogueteiro and Foros de Amora offering direct connections to Lisbon and Setúbal. Furthermore, the Metro Sul do Tejo light rail system links the Corroios parish to the Almada municipality, improving local transit choices. For those needing to cross the river, the Transtejo ferry service links Seixal to Lisbon's Cais do Sodré, providing a picturesque and effective route across the Tagus River.
The municipality is divided into four civil parishes: Amora, Corroios, Fernão Ferro, Seixal, and Arrentela e Aldeia de Paio Pires.

Metro Transportes do Sul

The system extends from Almada into the adjacent Seixal municipality, connecting the Santa Amaro and Corroios stations over a distance of 1.4 kilometers, along with an additional 1.3 kilometers of service track leading to the depot.
The initial design of the Almada Metro Transportes do Sul system, proposed in 1995, included an expansion that would traverse the central areas of Seixal and Barreiro municipalities, ultimately reaching the center of Moita municipality.
As of 2024, the discussion for the extension project has gained renewed momentum, with an extension westward towards Costa da Caparica and a new proposal for an eastward expansion. The first phase of the eastward extension is anticipated to start from Corroios, traversing the central areas of Seixal and Barreiro before concluding at Alhos Vedros in Moita municipality. This phase could be developed as either Light Rail Transit (LRT) or Bus Rapid Transit (BRT). The second phase, proposed as BRT only, would commence at Alhos Vedros, moving through the central area of Moita and progressing further through Montijo and Alcochete municipalities.

Founded November 5th, 2020

The Carris Metropolitana network offers bus services throughout the Lisbon metropolitan area, featuring routes that operate within individual municipalities, connect neighbouring municipalities, or provide direct access to Lisbon.
The metropolitan area is divided into four zones, with Lisbon at the center, and each of the four licensed operators managing their respective areas while facilitating seamless travel across zones. These operators have assumed control of nearly all local routes established before 2022, ensuring a consistent level of service across the entire metropolitan region. Barreiro and Cascais are the only two municipalities that have maintained their own bus operators independent of the Carris Metropolitana network; however, by 2025, they do not operate electric buses.
Each route number in the Carris Metropolitana network consists of four digits, where the first two digits indicate the route's location. The first digit represents the network area (1, 2, 3, or 4), while the second digit denotes the route type (0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 for routes within a single municipality with each number indicating which municipality from this area; 5 for inter-municipal connections; 6 for routes linking Barreiro and Cascais; 7 and 8 for routes connecting to Lisbon; and 9 for routes extending beyond the Lisbon metropolitan area). The last two digits simply represent the route number, which may sometimes correspond to a local route established before 2022.
In Seixal, which is part of area 3 of the network, Transportes Sul do Tejo serves as the primary operator; however, as of May 2025, it does not utilize electric buses. The adjacent operator in area 4, Alsa Todi from Setubal, operates certain bus routes (numbered 46xx and 47xx) that service Seixal and may incorporate electric buses.
