Transportation to Pólo da Mitra

Mitra Campus is 13km away from the city of Évora. The University bus that takes students departs at 08:30 from Portas da Lagoa, and circles the city wall stopping in many other bus stops marked in the map. After stopping at Portas do Raimundo, it passes Horta das Figueiras area before continuing to Mitra, where it arrives around 9:00. It is very important that if the students wish to use this transportation to arrive in Mitra, they should be at the bus stop SOME TIME IN ADVANCE, so that they can confirm is the bus stop is the correct one and don’t lose the bus.
