Porto’s System of Accessible Itineraries (SIA)

Explore how Porto made its hilly, historic city accessible to all with mapped, step-free routes connecting transport hubs, landmarks, and services. For several years, residents and visitors with reduced mobility could plan journeys easily, thanks to ramps, tactile paths, and a digital app. This pioneering system set a new benchmark for accessibility, though sustaining it long-term proved challenging.
