The Malaga Metro extends its hours from 6:30 AM to 2:30 AM from Wednesday to Good Friday.

Málaga/The Andalusian Regional Government announced this Wednesday that the Málaga Metro will extend its hours during Holy Week due to the high influx of users that public transport experiences during these dates. Thus, it will provide continuous service from 6:30 AM on Holy Wednesday until 2:30 AM from Good Friday to Holy Saturday, which amounts to 68 hours of uninterrupted service.

This special operation planned for Holy Week will also extend the commercial service until 2:30 AM on the mornings of Palm Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Good Friday, the Regional Government reported in a statement this Wednesday.

The subway will thus adjust both the schedules and the train frequency at stations to meet the demands of Holy Week, covering the increased demand, which significantly rose in 2024 with more than 600,000 passengers transported.

The frequency of trains will be set at one train every five minutes during peak demand times, and at nine minutes and 30 seconds during lower demand periods, thanks in large part to the expansion of the train fleet.

As last year, the Atarazanas station, located on Alameda Principal and very close to Larios Street, will operate normally, meaning it will serve as both an arrival and access station.

The Málaga Metro will also once again reinforce both the line personnel and security and surveillance staff, so that during nighttime hours all units will have security personnel.

The subway will have 41 security guards working in shifts, as established in the surveillance plan designed for Holy Week.
