Nearly 72% of El Ejido's urban bus trips are made by the Almerimar lines

The figures for urban public transport used by the City Council of El Ejido through concessions reflect the recent growth of Almerimar. This is an area where a large portion of the Ejido community is moving.

The City Council provided passenger data by lines to IDEAL for the year 2019.

Particularly, the line that communicates with Almerimar was used by 196,265 of the 273,115 urban bus passengers.

The communication with Santa Maria del Aguila is the second most important, with 46 489 travellers.

14 lines

El Ejido's urban transport service is divided into 14 lines. Some of these lines are for transport on-demand, while others operate at night. The main line connects El Ejido's center with Almerimar. It also has the 11 towards the beach and 21 back. These lines have night versions with frequencies at dawn that facilitate transport for those who prefer the beach area for their leisure nights. There is also a night connection to Almerimar from Santa Maria del Aguila at dawn. These communications are further strengthened by a special line that links El Ejido to the beach areas. It is 91 and 101, in their downhill or uphill versions, respectively. This makes for a more extensive route along the coast.
