In order to mitigate the effects of the cutting of the C-3 line of Cercanías de Madrid, Renfe has put in place transport alternatives for affected travelers, including free bus services on the interrupted section, as well as additional information on other mobility options on the Cercanías network.

The cut of the C-3 line between Getafe Industrial and Villaverde Bajo will begin today, Friday, November 1, and will continue until November 3..

Trains coming from Aranjuez will arrive at Getafe Industrial, while those leaving from Chamartín will end their journey in Villaverde Bajo.

For passengers who need to travel between the affected stations in this section (El Casar, San Cristóbal Industrial and San Cristóbal de los Ángeles), Renfe offers two bus lines with different options. The SE1 special bus will run between Getafe Industrial and Villaverde Alto without intermediate stops, with a frequency of 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the time.
