The Navegante Days will thus bring together some of the main stakeholders (authorities, operators, entities, experts and technicians) with the aim of gathering new contributions that may be relevant to continuing along a path of more sustainable mobility in the Lisbon metropolitan area. The event will also mark the five years of Navegante.
In 2019, Navegante brought simplification to the fare system, a reduction in the cost of the monthly pass, the extension of its geographical coverage, more mobility and more people using public transport. The implementation of this measure has contributed to improving people's quality of life and mobility, and was only possible due to the political priority assumed at the 1st Metropolitan Areas Summit and the commitment of the government, mayors and services of the respective municipalities.
