Metrotenerife has scheduled the winter timetable on Tuesday 8 September therefore the service frequencies will be increased. From now on, the tram will run on working days, from Monday to Friday, every 5 minutes on Line 1 and 10 minutes on Line 2 during the morning and midday hours.
The vice-president of the Island Government and president of Metrotenerife, Enrique Arriaga, explained that with this modification the transport offer adjusts to the demand and the metropolitan area activity due to the period of study and to the increase number of movements for work reasons.
Likewise, in evening timetable the trams will have more regularity than in summer time. From 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm, Line 1 will have a frequency of 6 minutes and 12 minutes on Line 2.
