SMAS de Almada applies for 4.5 million for water

The Municipal Water and Sanitation Services of Almada have applied for funding exceeding 4.5 million euros under the Sustainable 2030 program to enhance water supply resilience. The projects aim to modernize infrastructure, create new water sources, and improve storage capacity across three supply zones. Recent water shortages prompted protests and government intervention, leading to agreements for further studies on enhancing water supply security. The Minister of Environment announced additional projects to address these issues, including a connection between Lisbon and Almada and a potential new water source from Castelo de Bode dam.
