More frequency and more departures on several lines
The Empresa Municipal de Transports de Palma (EMT) launches next Monday, March 4, a series of actions to improve the public transport service on weekdays, with increased frequency and additional departures on several lines.
Lines L5 (Es Rafal Nou – Plaça Progrés) and L8 (Son Roca – Sindicat) increase their frequency, offering service every 6/8 minutes. Likewise, the L25 (Arenal-Plaça de la Reina/Catedral) has improved frequency and will pass every 10/11 minutes.
Additional outputs to cover detected demands
Other lines incorporate additional departures at the beginning or end of the day, meeting the demands detected. Thus, the L33 (Son Espases-Son Fuster) adds a new departure from the Hospital at 10.45 p.m., the L25 adds a first departure at 5.25 a.m. from the Arenal and the L35 (Aquarium – Plaça Reina/Catedral ) incorporates a new last departure at 00.45 hours. Finally, the A2 line (Airport-Arenal) will have articulated buses on its route to be able to transport more passengers.
