Portugal to start work on its first high-speed rail line.
30 July 2025
Work can begin on a new high-speed train line between Lisbon and Porto after the European Investment Bank wrote out a first cheque for €875 million in financing on Tuesday.
The first section of Portugal's first-ever high-speed railway will run south from Porto to the city of Oiã, about a quarter of the way to the capital, Lisbon.
