The Panama Metro (Spanish: Metro de Panamá) is a rapid transit system in Panama City, Panama.[4] It links neighborhoods north and the east of the metropolitan area to the city center.
The Metro was built to relieve the traffic congestion between the city and San Miguelito District and to offer commuters a viable alternative to road transport, as the MiBus transit system was suffering multiple issues.
The Metro operates seven days a week and 365 days a year. Its hours are Monday-Friday 05:00–23:00, Saturday 05:00–22:00, and Sundays and holidays 07:00–22:00.[5]
The 15.8-kilometer (9.8 mi) Line 1 opened on April 6, 2014,[6] serving 14 stations.[7] Line 2 was opened partially and temporarily between January 14 and 17, 2019 for World Youth Day festivities and permanently opened on April 25; it covers a 21-kilometer (13 mi) route and serves sixteen stations. A three-station branch line (El Ramal) to the Airport opened on March 16, 2023.
San Miguelito is the interchange station for both lines.[8][9][10]
The Panama Metro is part of a major "National Master Plan" to improve transportation around Panama City, which includes the construction of two more rapid transit lines, two monorail lines, three tram lines, and an aerial lift line.
