Moscavide Metro Station

Moscavide is a metro station on the Linha Vermelha of the Lisbon Metro , the subway network of the Portuguese capital . The station is located below Rua João Pinto Ribeiro , directly on the city limits between the Lisbon municipality of Olivais and the Freguesia Moscavide (Loures district), whose name it bears. The neighboring stations are Oriente and Encarnação .

The underground station was designed by the architect Manuel Bastos, who was also responsible for the station design for cost reasons. As usual, the platform received two 105 meter long side platforms. An elevator or an elevator leads from both platforms via two mezzanine floors to the main mezzanine floor, where the access barriers and ticket offices are located. From the main mezzanine there is one exit to the south and one to the south. For the design, Bastos chose two different stones from the Serra de Monchique: Amaciado, a smooth, matt stone for the floor coverings, and Flamejado, a corrugated, wrinkled stone, for the walls and columns. The colors white and blue dominate in the station.

The underground station went into operation on July 17, 2012 with the opening of the northern extension of Linha Vermelha between Oriente station and Portela Airport .
