Service Interruption on Yellow Line

Circulation on the Yellow Line of the Lisbon Metro was restored after experiencing disruptions earlier today. The service was interrupted between 10:18 and 10:36 on Sunday, September 14, 2025, due to an external cause unrelated to the metro system.

In a statement shared on the social network X, the Lisbon Metro indicated that the issue originated from a "cause alheia ao metro," meaning it was not due to internal faults. The metro authority apologized for the inconvenience and assured passengers that efforts were made to resume normal operations as quickly as possible.

Official Statement from Lisbon Metro

A tweet from the official account @metro_lisboa confirmed the situation:

Linha Amarela (10:18): ?? devido a causa alheia ao Metro, a circulação está interrompida. Esperamos retomar a circulação o mais breve possível. Agradecemos a sua compreensão. #EstadoDasLinhas — Metropolitano de Lisboa (@metro_lisboa) September 14, 2025

This incident highlights the occasional vulnerabilities in public transportation systems and the importance of timely communication during service disruptions. No further details were provided on the exact nature of the external cause, but such events are not uncommon in urban transit networks.
