Euskotren will restore winter time on Monday for rail and metro services

Euskotren , a public society under the Department of Sustainable Mobility of the Basque Government, will put into effect winter time on its train and metro services on Monday, 7 September, due to the end of the summer holidays and the gradual return to normal activity. 

The aim is to adapt timetables and frequencies, especially to meet the needs of travel for educational and work reasons.

For this reason, Euskotren has reported that, along with winter time, trains will also return to strengthen service during the "peak hours" of the morning. As a novelty, in Gipuzkoa, following the recent opening of the new Altza-Galtzaraborda route, Saturday night services between Donostia and Hendaia will be improvedand frequencies will be increased over the weekend in services between Amara (Donostia), Errenteria and Oiartzun.

The lines managed by Euskotren are: E1 Amara/Donostia-Matiko/Bilbao, E2 Hendaia-Lasarte Oria + Amara-Pasaia, E3 Kukullaga/Etxebarri-Lezama, L3 Metro Bilbao (Kukullaga/Etxebarri-Matiko/Bilbao), E4 Matiko/Bilbao-Bermeo and Sondika-Lutxana.

Euskotren recommends that people travelling by train or metro consult their schedules in advance, both on the official APP and on the website. It also recalls that information can be collected at 944 333 333 and at the stations where there are Euskotren staff.
