METRO BILBAO (UNDERGROUND)

The  Metro Bilbao was inaugurated in 1995 and it was designed by Sir Norman Foster. The entrances, called "fosteritos", have become a symbol of the city. The metro is the most convenient way to move around Bilbao. There are three lines (1, 2 and 3) designed with a "Y" shape to transit both banks of the Bilbao estuary (Nervión river) which then combine to form one line that ends in the south of Bilbao, by the sea shore, near a popular beach.

During the week the metro operates from 6:00 to 23:00 h. On weekends the metro offers a special night-time service. On Fridays the Metro works until 2:00 in the morning and on Saturdays it has a 24h service.  To use the service, one has to purchase a Barik card. This card can also be used in the tram and local busses and grants free short connections between all three transportation modes.
