The Valencia Metro (Spanish: Metro Valencia or Metro de Valencia) is the public mass transit system of Valencia, Carabobo, Venezuela and its suburbs Naguanagua Municipality and San Diego Municipality.

Operations

The metro system was officially opened to the public on 18 November 2006 with just 3 of 7 stations along the original Script error: No such module "convert". Line 1 route[1] open for service, and operating for limited hours while providing service free of charge.[2] Normal revenue service with all 7 stations along Line 1[1] began 18 November 2007.

Although the fleet comprises twelve Siemens SD-460 2-car light rail vehicle trainsets, the Valencia system is a light metro,[3][4] running on a completely grade-separated route (other than within its own maintenance yard) that does not share space with any other traffic.

Valencia Metro operates Monday-Friday from 6am to 8:30pm; Saturday, Sunday and holidays from 6:00am to 7:30pm. An adult fare of 0.5 BsF (23 US cents) and a student fare of 0.15 BsF (7 US Cents) is charged to ride the metro. An average of 62,000 passenger are transported daily.

Future

Extension of the existing north-south route - Lines 2 & 3

A further Script error: No such module "convert". section (Line 2)[1] of the same north-south route as Line 1 is under construction,[2] and a third Script error: No such module "convert". section (Line 3)[1] in the engineering and environmental impact phases.[2] Thus, of the full Script error: No such module "convert". north-south route, only Script error: No such module "convert". are currentlyScript error: No such module "Unsubst". in service, with the remaining Script error: No such module "convert". still under construction or in development. Not every segment of construction on this route is an independent "line." When the system is fully completed, it will form a single continuous route, with no transfers necessary to complete a trip along the route.

Line 4

A separate Script error: No such module "convert".Script error: No such module "Unsubst". east-west Line 4[1] will connect mainly the Valencia Municipality with San Diego Municipality of the same city, and it is in the preliminary planning stage.
