M2 metro runs a shortened route from Friday evening

On Friday, 13 November, from 22:00 until the end of service, and all day on 14 and 15 November, the M2 metro will run only between Örs vezér tere and Deák Ferenc tér, according to BKK's notice. Passengers in Budapest will need an alternative route for the Buda section because of planned maintenance.

Replacement buses will operate between Deák Ferenc tér and Déli pályaudvar via Margit Bridge. BKK also says trams 4 and 6 will run more frequently. The replacement route therefore does not follow the metro's usual alignment throughout.

For Friday evening outings, plan the outward and return journeys separately. The Museum of Fine Arts' Gauguin evening, for example, ends earlier, but a later journey home could fall within the restriction. This is a journey-planning consideration, not a change to the event's schedule.

Connections in southern Pest and the surrounding area are also affected by replacement services on the H6 suburban railway. For journeys involving several transfers, check the entire route rather than just the M2 section. Before departure, consult BKK's official notice for the precise locations of replacement bus stops. We do not quantify extra journey time: it depends on the chosen connection and departure.

Travellers with a companion, luggage or a fixed arrival time may find it especially useful to choose their transfer point in advance. Update the departure time as well when saving a route for the return journey.
