DESCRIPTION An automated cable system operated in Oeiras Municipality (Lisbon West) from 2004 to 2015; the service was suspended in 2015 due to economic reasons. The so-called SATUO ran from Navegantes (close to the coast, with a railway interchange point) to Forum; an extension to Lagoas Park was considered, as well as a second one to Taguspark.
