Between 1986 and 1996, it also served Line 8. The station is located below the intersections of Avenida de Am\u00e9rica and Francisco Silvela and Pr\u00edncipe de Vergara streets. The station consists of several underground levels, with the bus terminal located in the upper three and the Metro station located in the lower four. It serves the neighborhood of Prosperidad and El Viso in Chamart\u00edn district and La Guindalera in Salamanca district. It is about 15 minutes from Madrid Barajas Airport and 10 minutes from the city centre of Madrid.[1][2][3][4]Table of ContentsHistory[edit]Madrid Metro station[edit]Bus terminal[edit]Station layout[edit]References[edit]History[edit]Madrid Metro station[edit]The station was inaugurated on 26 March 1973 when Line 4 was extended from Diego de Le\u00f3n to Alfonso XIII. The metro station was built from the start to service four Metro lines, and each platform was opened to the public when the corresponding line went into service. The Line 4 platforms are the shallowest in the Metro station, located at the fourth level below the street and aligned with Francisco Silvela street.On 17 March 1975, Line 7 was extended to Avenida de Am\u00e9rica.[5][6] The Line 7 platforms are the second shallowest in the Metro station, and are arranged in a Spanish solution layout with one central platform and two side platforms.Four years later, on 10 October 1979, the Line 6 platforms entered service when the first stretch of Line 6 was inaugurated between Pac\u00edfico and Cuatro Caminos.[7] Like the Line 7 platforms, it features a central platform and side platforms.Another four years later, on 30 December 1983, a segment of Line 9 known as Line 9B was built, connecting Avenida de Am\u00e9rica to Plaza de Castilla. This segment was not connected to the rest of Line 9 until 24 February 1986, when the stretch from Avenida de Am\u00e9rica to Sainz de Baranda was built. The Line 9 platforms are the deepest in the station.On 23 December 1986, service on the old Line 8 began between Avenida de Am\u00e9rica and Nuevos Ministerios using the existing Line 7 tunnel, so that each line used one track. When Line 8 and Line 10 were merged in 1996, Line 8 service ended at Avenida de Am\u00e9rica, and in 1998 Line 7 resumed the use of both tracks.In recent years, the Line 6 and Line 4 platforms have undergone renovations. The Line 7 platforms were temporarily closed during September 2006 in order to replace the catenaries.Bus terminal[edit]  Exterior of the Avenida de Am\u00e9rica bus terminalAt the end of the 1990s, a three-level underground bus station was built above the metro station in the area previously used the Metro station vestibule. The station, which was the second underground bus station to be built in Madrid, was completed in 2000. It services city buses as well as interurban and long-distance coaches, and it houses stores and a parking garage.Between 2009 and 2014, the second level of the bus station underwent renovations.Station layout[edit]0Street levelExits\/entrances  (Lift to bus terminal on Avenida da America)-1Upper mezzanineBus terminal gates 20\u201336 (long-distance buses)-2Center mezzanineBus terminal gates 1\u201319 (urban\/suburban buses)-3Metro mezzanineOne-way fare gates, ticket machines, station agent Transfer between platforms  (Lowest level served by lifts; platforms not handicapped accessible)-4Line 4 platformsSide platform, doors will open on the leftEastbound\u2192  to Pinar de Chamart\u00edn (Prosperidad) \u2192Westbound\u2190  to Arg\u00fcelles (Diego de Le\u00f3n)Side platform, doors will open on the left-5 Line 7 platformsSide platform, doors will open on the leftEastbound\u2192  to Estadio Metropolitano (Cartagena) \u2192Island platform, doors will open on the right for alighting passengers only Westbound\u2190  to Pitis (Gregorio Mara\u00f1\u00f3n)Side platform, doors will open on the left-6 Line 6 platformsSide platform, doors will open on the leftTrack 2\u2192  clockwise (Diego de Le\u00f3n) \u2192Island platform, doors will open on the right for alighting passengers only Track 1\u2190  counterclockwise (Rep\u00fablica Argentina)Side platform, doors will open on the left-7Line 9 platformsSide platform, doors will open on the leftSouthbound\u2192  to Puerta de Arganda (N\u00fa\u00f1ez de Balboa) \u2192Northbound\u2190  to Paco de Luc\u00eda (Cruz del Rayo)Side platform, doors will open on the leftReferences[edit]  "},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/avenida-de-america-madrid-metro\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Avenida de Am\u00e9rica (Madrid Metro)"}}]}]
