Inspectors have ordered Lisbon’s remaining cable railway services to stay closed as investigations following the September catastrophe reveal serious safety failures.

Portugal’s transport safety agency is set to publish on Monday its first findings on the accident that killed 16 people in early September.

A broken cable is to blame for the tragic accident in the Portuguese capital.

The non-Portuguese victims included three Britons, two South Koreans, two Canadians, one Frenchwoman, one Swiss, one American, and one Ukrainian.
