Starting Monday, April 13th, STCP's 703 bus line will take on a new route between the Pícua and Ermesinde areas in Valongo.

This restructuring results from the city's urban expansion and the need to provide passengers with better connections, translating into increased service at Quinta da Granja and improved intermodal integration of public transport in Ermesinde.

New Route of Line 703 (Cordoaria - Ermesinde (Station))

The main change to line 703 involves extending its route to Ermesinde Station, allowing for a more direct and efficient connection. From Monday, passengers will have access to a bus line serving the following locations:

  • Holy Water Pools
  • Ermesinde commercial zone
  • Citizen's Shop of Ermesinde
  • Basic School of Dreams
  • Field of Dreams
  • Ermesinde Station
With the new terminus at Ermesinde Station and the route change, line 703 now ensures better connections with the train and the UNIR network. The route between Ermesinde Station, Saibreiras and Alto da Maia remains covered by line 701 (Bolhão - Codiceira).

STCP continues to work to meet the needs of citizens and the challenges of the cities where it operates. With this restructuring, passengers will have more mobility options between Alto da Maia and Ermesinde, benefiting from a more efficient, flexible network tailored to their daily commutes.
