On Thursday afternoon, Metrovalencia was forced to halt all traffic on its network due to a technical problem in its control system. Traffic was temporarily paralyzed and access to the stations was limited. The incident began to be recorded at 6:30 PM, according to sources from Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat, and the public company’s technicians are working on its resolution.
Dozens of passengers had to wait inside the trains for almost an hour and were informed via announcements about what happened. The problem coincided with a rain episode in the Turia capital and originated in the application of the centralized traffic control from Metrovalencia's command post.
In the words of the ABC source: "On Thursday afternoon, Metrovalencia halted all traffic on its network due to a technical problem in its control system.

The company’s technicians are dedicating efforts to resolve the situation and resume transport service as soon as possible, avoiding further setbacks for the passengers affected by this unexpected interruption.
