Power failure affects circulation on three lines of the Lisbon Metro

Metropolitano de Lisboa faces service interruption.

The Yellow, Blue, and Green lines of the Lisbon Metro faced service disruptions on the afternoon of Saturday, May 10, due to a “power failure.”

In an update shared on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, Lisbon Metro announced that the Yellow line services were interrupted between Terreiro do Paço and Santa Apolónia stations because of an energy outage.

“At the moment, it is not possible to predict the duration of the interruption, which could be prolonged. The Metro is making every effort to resume services as soon as possible,” the statement noted.

The Green and Blue lines are also experiencing halted services due to the same issue.

Earlier this Saturday, Lisbon Metro announced four stations—Parque, Marquês de Pombal, Avenida, and Picoas—would be closed from 5:00 PM onwards due to security issues related to the football derby between Sport Lisboa e Benfica and Sporting Clube de Portugal.
