Thessaloniki's Metro is set to resume its regular commercial operations on Saturday, June 20, with services running from 5:15 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

This resumption follows a temporary suspension of passenger services to allow for the integration of the Kalamaria extension. During the closure period, from May 29 to June 19, passengers holding travel cards with active 30, 90, or 180-day packages can have their remaining balance reloaded.

To facilitate this, specific ticket offices at the "Neos Sidirodromikos Stathmos" (New Train Station), "Venizelou," "Agias Sophias," "25th Martiou," and "Nea Elvetia" stations will be available. These offices will operate daily from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Passengers must present their personalized travel card to complete the reloading process.

The Metro's return to normal service is expected to ease transportation for the city's residents and visitors, restoring a vital public transit link.
