trip to lisbon, transponder / hire car
Hi All, sorry if this has been covered before, I did search and could not find it in a previous thread. If I pick up a hire car at Faro and use it to drive to Lisbin, will the same transponder that works on the A22 work on the motorway to Lisbon.
Also, what about paying the lisbon bridge tolls, can I go through the fast lane when crossing into and out of Lisbon?
many thanks,

There are transponders that will work in all of those places (ViaVerde) but there are also transponders that will only work on the likes of the A22.
You would need to establish exactly what type of transponder (and associated payment contract) is provided by the hire car company before your question can be answered conclusively.

The Via Verde transponder works on all toll roads in PT and yes you can drive through the fast lane crossing the bridge.
