The Community of Madrid has ordered the closure of the Puerta del Sol Metro station to conduct urgent cleaning and security operations. Regional President Isabel Díaz Ayuso announced the measure, citing unsanitary conditions caused by an encampment located in the plaza above the station.
Authorities report that the closure is necessary to address the accumulation of organic waste, including urine and excrement, in ventilation shafts and access points. Officials state that these conditions have resulted in the detection of toxic gases, necessitating immediate intervention to ensure the safety and hygiene of the transit facility.
