Euskotren to put on extra services on the tramway and Line 3 of the Metro underground in Bilbao for the Athletic – Real Sociedad match on Sunday 1 November

On Sunday 1 November, Euskotren will put on extra services on the tramway and Line 3 of the Metro underground in Bilbao for the Athletic – Real Sociedad match, which will be played at San Mamés with kick-off at 9.00 p.m.

BILBAO TRAMWAY
Euskotren will run an extra tram from Atxuri to La Casilla, departing at 7.51 p.m., in addition to its regular service in Bilbao. The service between La Casilla and Euskalduna will be partially disrupted before and after the match to ensure safety in the vicinity of the San Mamés stadium. 

The service will stop between 8.20 p.m. and 9.00 p.m. before the match. It will then not run between La Casilla and Euskalduna between 10.45 p.m. and 11.10 p.m. after the match. These disruptions are included in the Municipal Emergency Plan coordinated by Bilbao City Council. 

Euskotren recommends going to the Euskalduna tram stop for the return journey in order to avoid crowds forming at the stops close to San Mamés. Barik travel cards should also be used to pay the fare to expedite people getting on the tram.

L3 UNDERGROUND LINE
The regular Sunday timetable for L3 of the Metro underground (Matiko/Bilbao - Kukullaga/Etxebarri) will be extended for people to travel back after the match; this will bolster the Metro Bilbao service on Lines 1 and 2, thanks to the connections at the Zazpikaleak/Casco Viejo station. 

Passengers can obtain further information by phoning the information line on 944 333 333, from the www.euskotren.eus website and the Euskotren official APP.
