SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, 29 Apr. (EUROPE PRESS) –
Metrotenerife, the tram operator, will adapt the service of its Line 1 for the Santa Cruz Magicians’ Ball, which will take place on the night of next Monday, May 2, so that from 7:00 p.m. on this day the trams will only arrive to the Teatro Guimerá stop.
Specifically, during the celebration of the Baile de Magos, Line 1 will operate between the La Trinidad and Teatro Guimerá stops in order to guarantee the safety of the service and of those attending this traditional festival. The trams will end their service at midnight on Monday 2, which will restart at 06:00 on Tuesday 3 with the usual frequencies.
Enrique Arriaga, island councilor for Mobility and president of Metrotenerife, has highlighted that the tram is “an ideal transport alternative to get to the Baile de Magos due to the proximity of the Teatro Guimerá stop to the enclosure marked off for the party between La Concepción, La Noria, Bravo Murillo and surroundings”.
He added that from 7:00 p.m. on Monday the 2nd and until midnight, when Line 1 will end its service, the trams will be operating normally between La Laguna and Santa Cruz every 6, 12 and 15 minutes, depending on the section. schedule.
Faced with a foreseeable increase in demand, the insular director of Mobility, José Alberto León, indicated that it is necessary to continue protecting oneself against the coronavirus. In this sense, he stressed that the use of the mask is mandatory inside public transport and also recommended at stops in the event that the safety distance cannot be maintained.
