Madrid Metro service disruptions and testing

Overview

The Madrid Metro network has experienced service disruptions involving different lines for maintenance and testing purposes.

In late September, service on Line 9 was suspended between the Puerta de Arganda and Pavones stations due to an ‘incident’. Reports indicated that workers and machinery were present on the tracks, suggesting the interruption was related to track maintenance or repairs.

In mid-October, scheduled closures were announced for Line 6 to facilitate safety testing for new driverless, automated trains. These interruptions were planned for specific weekends, affecting the section between Cuatro Caminos and Lucero. To mitigate the impact on commuters, the Metro planned to provide a free special bus service for the affected route.
