El Perchel is an underground station serving Lines 1 and 2 of the Málaga Metro. The station opened on 30 July 2014 as the city centre terminus for both lines.[1]
Services[]
Currently, El Perchel is a terminus station, and the only station serving both lines of the metro. Line 1 reaches Andalucia Tech, while Line 2 ends at Palacio de Deportes José María Martín Carpena. Entrances to El Perchel are located outside Málaga María Zambrano railway station, where AVE high-speed rail services, regional trains and local Cercanías trains to Fuengirola and Álora can be accessed.
Future[]
El Perchel is to become a through-station, as an extension further into the city centre with two underground stops, Guadalmedina and Atarazanas, is under construction and due to open in 2020.[2]
