Málaga Metro, in line with its commitment to the health and safety of its users, has received certification as a brain-protected space. This distinction, awarded by the Stroke Foundation, marks a milestone in the local transport infrastructure.

The certificate was presented on 10 November 2026 at the subway facilities. The event was attended by notable figures such as María Rosa Morales, territorial delegate of the Ministry of Development and Mobility in Málaga, Fernando Lozano, general director of Málaga Metro, and Julio Agredano, president of the Stroke Foundation.

Training and Immediate Response

The Metro staff has received specific training that enables them to quickly identify a stroke and act according to emergency protocols. This training is crucial, as the speed of response can decisively influence the prognosis and recovery of the affected individual.

In her speech, María Rosa Morales praised the concessionary society, highlighting the importance of its work in the transport sector and its focus on social responsibility. For his part, Fernando Lozano reaffirmed that the company's philosophy is to place people at the centre of its operational strategy, seeking not only to provide an effective mobility service but also a safe and heart-protected environment.

Commitment to Safety

The achievement of this certification is also the result of a comprehensive awareness programme. The Spanish Society of Neurology (SEN) has scientifically endorsed this initiative, which thus makes Málaga Metro a benchmark in the safety of national suburban transport.

With this action, the Málaga subway positions itself at the forefront, transforming its stations and trains into spaces designed to save lives and effectively respond to emergency situations.
