Service disrumption

The WHO has declared the Coronavirus as an international public health emergency.

Real time information

In order to help in planning journeys and avoiding crowds, TMB is setting up an application for the public, with indicators of the estimated average occupancy. It will be possible to consult per line, direction and time slot for the metro; and per route, direction and time slot for the bus. These indicators will be given in the environment of the TMB corporate website.

Estimated occupancy rates could be affected in the event of unexpected incidents in the service.

When you look up your line, the system will show you the estimated average occupancy level for the day and time you have selected.If you want to consult other days or time slots you can do so by selecting the configuration options.
