Hospital Virgen Macarena crossroads now restricted to a single lane due to Seville's Metro Line 3 construction works starting from Monday
In the heart of Seville, Spain, the third section of Line 3 North is undergoing significant changes, with a budget of over 1,366 million euros and declared an operation of strategic importance by the Feder 2021-2027 framework. The works, coordinated by the Ministry of Public Works, Territorial Planning and Housing, are taking place near the Virgen Macarena Hospital.
The works on this section will reduce one lane per direction at the intersection of Doctor Fedriani, Doctor Leal Castaño, and Doctor Marañon, starting August 11. To minimize traffic disturbances, a mobility plan has been implemented. The City Council and the Ministry of Public Works are working together to ensure traffic on avenues leading to the Virgen Macarena Hospital remains unchanged.
The works involve the execution of digs and demolition of the corner of Dr. Fedriani with Dr. Maranón for the location of conductions and services. A line of piles will be executed in the delimited areas near the sidewalk for the protection of the trenches of the canalizations, some of which go up to five meters deep and are located along the sidewalks, in the area occupied until now by the bike lane and the parking lots.
While the functionality for registered users is only available for specific services, the Junta de Andalusia has opened two citizen attention offices for queries about the works: one in the headquarters of the North District, in Pino Montano, and another in the Civic Center Hogar San Fernando, in the Macarena.
However, as of August 2025, no explicit details on the mobility plan related to Line 3 North works in Seville have been found in the current search data. For exact, authoritative, and current information, official local government transport sources such as the Ayuntamiento de Sevilla or EMTS - Empresa Municipal de Transportes de Sevilla, local transport authority announcements, or specific public consultation portals set up for the project should be consulted directly.
These infrastructure projects typically involve temporary traffic adjustments and rerouting strategies, notices and consultation with local populations, and updates about alternative transport options to ensure mobility continuity. The third section of Line 3 North, from San Lázaro to the Macarena, has an investment of more than 178 million euros.
