Figure 23. Lisbon s Transport Modes in Numbers. Source: Author based on data from ACAP (2022); Câmara Municipal de Lisboa (2021); Carris (2020); EMEL (2022); Metro Lisboa (2022); TML (2022) In addition, the city also offers a bike-sharing system (Gira) with 1,300 bikes (among conventional and also electric options ones) which can be rented in 116 stations spread through the city (Câmara Municipal de Lisboa, 2021; EMEL, 2022). In addition, the capital of Portugal has been growing its bike infrastructure over the years; nowadays, the city provides approximately 150km to its community and has plans to increase it even more (Câmara Municipal de Lisboa, 2021). In contrast, Lisbon has a history of a high PV fleet; in 2019, there were 1,702,097 in total (1,596,752 related to cars and 105,345 related to motorcycles), which culminated in a motorization rate of 748 vehicles per 1,000 inhabitants (ACAP, 2022). Additionally, it is essential to mention that the author has contacted by email and asked the public bodies for the numbers related only to Lisbon, city-scale; however, all numbers given were related to the district level.

Under the considerations expressed so far, mobility in Lisbon has recently started changing its fragmented context toward a more holistic one, where mobility has been in a more integrated set of measures and actions in favor of a bigger picture. Moreover, similar to previous case cities, Lisbon has been among the finalists of the European Mobility Week award in 2015 and 2016 and has won it in 2018 due to some significant cycling initiatives and incentives for multimodality (EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK, 2022b).

After all, to close the last selected case city, Figure 24 shows Lisbon modal split from 2017. The total percentage of displacements among PT, bicycle, and walking is 52%, and the goal to be reached by - selected as one of the documents analyzed in this study is 66% against 34% associated with private vehicles
