Santa Cruz Half Marathon to Disrupt Public Transport This Sunday

The 12th Santa Cruz de Tenerife International Half Marathon takes place this Sunday, November 15, leading to temporary changes to public transport across the capital. To ensure the safety of all runners, local authorities have adjusted tram and bus routes to accommodate the event.

Tram Service Changes Starting at 8:30 a.m., Line 1 will be shortened. Trams will terminate at the La Paz stop, meaning the Weyler, Teatro Guimerá, Fundación, and Intercambiador stations will be closed. While the route is restricted, trams will continue to run at their usual Sunday frequency. Service is expected to return to normal around noon, though this depends on the progress of the race and approval from the Local Police.

Bus Service Adjustments The marathon, which begins with the main race at 9:00 a.m. followed by a popular race at 9:45 a.m., will require road closures on major routes, including Avenida Marítima and the roads leading to San Andrés. As a result, Titsa has adjusted several bus lines, including the temporary suspension of line 920.

Metrotenerife encourages passengers to stay updated on these changes by checking their official social media channels, where real-time information will be posted as the network returns to normal service.
