In a statement, the municipality states that the measure will be implemented “in order to alleviate family expenses and promote the use of public passenger transport, helping to achieve carbon neutrality in the municipality”.

Although free of charge, it will continue to be necessary to activate the pass every month at the Tejo Bus Station ticket office and validate the trip when entering the vehicle.

In the case of occasional passengers, they will be issued a single ticket to monitor the use of the system.

The TUT is made up of three round-trip routes in the city of Torres Novas: the blue line between the health center and the hospital, the red line between Bairro da Cabrita and Nicho dos Riachos and the green line between Gare R Tagus and Riachos Station.
