PORTUGAL: Bus and coach group Barraqueiro has established B-Rail as a subsidiary to run open access passenger train services along the Atlantic corridor linking cities in the north and south of the country as part of an integrated multi-modal transport strategy. Barraqueiro already holds the concession to operate Fertagus suburban services in Lisboa, but wants to develop further rail operations to complement its strong position in the road transport market. B-Rail is planning to operate 12 daily services each way between Lisboa and Porto, of which two would run through from Lisboa to Faro and three from Porto to Braga.
