The Integrated Transportation Authority (ATI by its initials in Spanish) will implement an operational plan featuring bus transportation between the Bayamón, Deportivo and Jardines stations of the Urban Train system due to electrical work scheduled by LUMA Energy, running from this Wednesday through next Friday, April 3.

“An alternate transportation system utilizing buses will be established to connect the Bayamón, Deportivo and Jardines stations,” the ATI stated in a written release. “In light of this situation, an operational plan has been developed and implemented to ensure service continuity and minimize the impact on passengers.”

During the period of scheduled work, Urban Train service will operate normally between the Jardines and Sagrado Corazón stations.

The service interruption at the Bayamón and Deportivo stations stems from improvements being made to a critical component of the electrical system.

The ATI indicated that commercial concessions located within both stations will not be affected, as they are equipped with independent electrical systems.

There will also be personnel at the stations -- along with signage and security measures -- to guide users and facilitate operations throughout the duration of the scheduled work.
