Tuk-Tuks Are Clogging Streets And Making Our City Unlivable

Tuk-Tuks Are Clogging Streets And Making Our City Unlivable

A line of Tuk Tuks waits for tourists in Lisbon, Portugal, on August 24, 2024. Tourism in Portugal booms, leading to congested streets in Lisbon filled with tuk-tuks. In 2024, global tourism is expected to break records, fueled by ''revenge travel,'' digital nomad trends, and golden visas, which also drive up housing prices. The World Travel and Tourism Council projects a 24% growth in Portugal's tourism sector over 2019 levels, adding 126,000 jobs and comprising 20% of the economy. However, rising property prices push locals out of the housing market. Overtourism now harms residents, degrades sites, and overwhelms infrastructure. (Photo by Luis Boza/NurPhoto )
