Montijo is a municipality within the Setubal district, part of the Lisbon metropolitan area.
Montijo has become really prominent after the construction of the Vasco da Gama bridge and the completion of some relevant roads due to which its proximity to Lisbon has really shortened
There is also connectivity from Montijo to Lisbon via a short ferry ride that goes across the Tagus River into the heart of Lisbon.
The Montijo Airport project, which will work in combination with the current Humberto Delgado Airport in Lisbon, aims to transform part of an air base into a civil airport
