What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

Transport Minister Óscar Puente announced a reduction in service frequencies on the Madrid-Andalucía high-speed line until the new ERTMS system is operational, likely in early 2027. This reduction is necessary while Adif begins rebuilding track damaged in a collision near Urda. The reopening of the line is expected about ten days after the judge authorizes the repair work, though services will not immediately return to normal capacity.
