Naples is preparing to inaugurate the new Metro Line 7 , a long-awaited infrastructure that will connect Soccavo to the Monte Sant'Angelo university campus in Fuorigrotta. The first ride is scheduled for Monday, November 10, 2025 , with 62 daily connections operated by EAV – Ente Autonomo Volturno , the regional company led by Umberto De Gregorio . The cost of a single ride will be €1,50.
Service times and frequency
Line 7 will operate daily , with the first departure at 7:26 a.m. and the last at 19:34 p.m. Trains will depart every 24 minutes , for a total of 62 daily journeys along the entire route. The route allows you to reach the Monte Sant'Angelo university campus in about 20 minutes from the historic center, thanks to the interchange with the Circumflegrea Line at Soccavo station.
The opening of Line 7 will significantly reduce rail connection times to Fuorigrotta , especially for those coming from the Pianura and Soccavo districts and from Phlegraean municipalities such as Quarto and Licola.
A strategic connection for students and residents
The new 4,5-kilometer line connects the Traiano district , the Federico II University campus, and the Campi Flegrei area , improving the city's metropolitan transport network. The Monte Sant'Angelo station , the terminus of the line, was built within the campus and stands out for its impressive art installation by Anish Kapoor , making it a true "art station."
The words of the institutions
During an inspection in September, Governor Vincenzo De Luca described Line 7 as "an extraordinary project, among the most beautiful and complex completed in Naples by the Campania Region." The project is part of the Region's infrastructure development plan to make public transportation more efficient and sustainable.
De Luca emphasized: "We have purchased new trains to ensure continuous and punctual service. Our goal is clear: to create concrete projects that improve the lives of residents. The Monte Sant'Angelo station is not just a piece of infrastructure, but also a symbol of the city's cultural rebirth."
The new Line 7 therefore represents a significant step in strengthening the Neapolitan metropolitan system, with particular attention to student mobility and the artistic and urban enhancement of the stations.
