On Monday, September 21, 2026, Line 1 of the Naples Metro will close early. The ANM has announced that the last evening services will be brought forward to allow for inspections and on-line testing.

A useful message for those returning late from work or a night out in the city center: on Monday, the last trains run about an hour and a half earlier than the regular service.

What's changing on Monday, September 21st?

According to the company's announcement, the last bus from Piscinola is scheduled for 21:03 PM , while the last bus from the Centro Direzionale departs at 21:30 PM . This measure is valid for Monday only, so it's a good idea to check the timetable before traveling.

For information and updates, the ANM indicates the contact center on the toll-free number 800 639525 and the social profiles on Facebook and X @anmnapoli , active from Monday to Friday from 6.30 to 20.

To understand the extent of the change: on weekdays, from Monday to Thursday, the regular service lasts from Piscinola at 22:30 PM and from Centro Direzionale at 23:00 PM . With the early closure on Monday, therefore, the line stops much earlier than usual.

Why Line 1 closes early

The reason is technical: checks and tests on rolling stock and along the line, activities that require work on suspended tracks. It's the same pattern already seen on other occasions, such as the early closure on Thursday, September 3 , when the last trains departed around 9:00 PM.

Line 1 returned to full service on Monday 14 September , following the end of the summer track renewal works: the Piscinola-Scampia, Chiaiano and Frullone stations are open again , and the line is accessible from Piscinola to Centro Direzionale.

What remains regular and what does not

The week's open issues remain: the first exit of the Montedonzelli station is closed and the station is accessible only from Via dell'Erba, while on Line 2 the suspension of the Pozzuoli – Campi Flegrei section continues , in force since June 21 due to CO2 levels in the Flegrea tunnel and bradyseism.

The Mergellina funicular , replaced by shuttle 621, and the Montesanto funicular are also out of service . A complete list of construction sites, suspended services, and traffic restrictions can be found in the Naples traffic and transport update of September 19.
