TRAM d'Alacant will apply new schedules between Alicante and El Campello from February 17, which will allow services every 15 minutes

 

 

• To implement this improvement, which directly affects Lines 1 and 3, FGV has hired nine drivers
• The planned modification also entails changes and improvements in the timetables of Lines 2, 4 and 5.

Starting today,17th February, Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana (FGV) will implement new timetables that will allow a tram service to be offered every 15 minutes between Luceros and El Campello.

This new schedule, which directly affects Lines 1 and 3, is more in line with the current needs and demands of users, compared to the 30-minute frequency established to date.

This improvement is possible thanks to the incorporation of nine drivers and also thanks to the installation of the new Luceros railway escapement, which allows for an increase in the number of trains in circulation and in which FGV has invested nearly one million euros.

Other service improvements

Furthermore, with this modification, the service on Lines 4 and 1 is improved every day, so that the last train from Plaça La Corunya will arrive at Luceros and not at Talleres. Likewise, the last train leaving Benidorm for El Campello, which until now was empty, will be for passengers.

On Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, Line 3 at the end of the service from El Campello to Luceros will have the same service as a weekday (two more trains than currently).

On Line 2 (Luceros-Sant Vicent), on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays, the first departure from Luceros is 15 minutes earlier (6.24 instead of 6.38 with a frequency of 30 minutes until 7.24).

At the start of service on Line 5 (Puerta del Mar-Plaça de la Corunya), the first two trains run as passenger trams and the last two also run as passenger trains between Porta del Mar and El Campello.

For more information about the services, users can check the timetables, as well as at stations and stops, by calling the Customer Service information telephone number (900 72 04 72), as well as on the website www.tramalacant.es , the official app and Navilens Go.
