The Buenos Aires’ “D” subway line, which runs between the neighborhoods of Microcentro and Núñez, will close from January 8 to March 17 due to renovations to its signaling system. Subterráneos de Buenos Aires said that the Automatic Train Protection (ATP) signaling system is being replaced by the more modern Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) which is used for the C and H lines. From Wednesday until January 7, the subway will run from 07:00 a.m. to 09:30 p.m. for preliminary works. While the line is out of service, renovations of the Facultad de Medicina station will also be finished, which can only be done when the station is closed. The D line runs from Congreso de Tucumán (on the border of the neighborhoods of Belgrano and Núñez) to Catedral (in downtown Buenos Aires right in front of Plaza de Mayo) and connects with the Metrobus Norte bus track as well as the Mitre and San Martín train lines.
