The Valencia Metro Network


Metrovalencia is one of the oldest local railways in Spain: its origin is the narrow-gauge Trenet, whose first line ran between Valencia and Llíria in 1888. Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat Valenciana took over modern operations in 1987, and the first underground section opened in 1988. Within Spain it stands alongside the Barcelona Metro as one of the country’s largest local rail networks; further along the Iberian Peninsula, the Lisbon Metro is a comparable system.

The network spans 161.4 route kilometers. Around 29.6 track-kilometers run in tunnels and 134.7 above ground. It comprises 147 stations, 38 underground and 109 above ground, and serves 35 municipalities in addition to Valencia. In 2025, the network carried around 91.6 million passengers.


The defining feature is its mixed character: classic tunnel and suburban rail lines meet above-ground tram lines, all built to meter gauge. Metro lines connect the city center and the airport, while the tram serves the coast and the harbor, among other areas. The city sits in Zone A, while the airport is a special fare zone; these zones divide the network into clear price bands.

Carrying bikes, pets & accessibility: New carry-on rules took effect on October 1, 2025. Folding bikes may travel folded across the whole network at any time. Conventional, non-folding bikes are capped at four per train, must ride in the last car and are not allowed in the tunnel sections or on the tram lines. Electric bikes, e-scooters and other personal mobility devices remain banned, except mobility aids for people with reduced mobility. Pets travel only in a carrier; assistance dogs may ride without one. On accessibility, the network is among Spain’s best: 99.5 percent of stations are step-free (84 elevators, 135 escalators), with only València Sud station on L1 still being rebuilt.

Valencia Metro: Further Information

The FGV Plan de Actuación 2026-2030 is worth around 839 million euros for the FGV network in Valencia and Alicante. Some 275 million euros are earmarked for modernizing existing infrastructure (tunnels, signalling, electrical systems), while further new lines and extensions are planned separately. After the DANA flash flood, passenger service on the southern network has been fully restored.

Fun Fact: The Alameda metro station was designed by architect Santiago Calatrava, who also created the neighboring Exposición bridge, popularly known as la Peineta. The station sits 10.5 meters below the old riverbed of the Turia.

The ghost station beneath the Mercat Central: Around 30 meters below the market hall lies a fully built station that never opened. Dug from 2007 for about 2.7 million euros using the cut-and-cover method – the deepest construction pit in the city at the time – it was meant to carry L10 through the Old Town to Pont de Fusta. The second construction phase, however, was never built; a five-level underground car park with 450 spaces opened above the shell in 2018. To this day, FGV does not rank the extension as a priority.
