Welcome to the Milan Metro
Welcome to metromilano.org, the independent guide to the Milan Metro, managed by ATM on behalf of the City of Milan. The network consists of 5 lines (M1, M2, M3, M4, and M5) and 125 stations spanning approximately 112 km—from the red M1 to the lilac M5, passing through the major hubs of Duomo, Cadorna, Centrale, and Garibaldi.
The network includes the modern, driverless, automated lines M4 and M5: the blue M4, completed in 2024, connects Linate Airport directly to the city center. Here you’ll find a page for each line and station, a map, schedules, information on tickets and the ATM pass, and a route planner.

Frequently Asked Questions
Milan has 5 subway lines: M1 (red), M2 (green), M3 (yellow), M4 (blue), and M5 (lilac). The M4 and M5 lines are automated and driverless. In total, there are 5 lines and 125 stations. The main transfer stations are Duomo (M1/M3), Cadorna FN (M1/M2), Centrale FS (M2/M3), Loreto (M1/M2), and Garibaldi FS (M2/M5).
The subway runs from around 5:30 a.m. until 12:30 a.m. (half past midnight). At night, when the subway is closed, the NM1, NM2, NM3, and NM4 night bus lines operate along the same routes as the subway lines.
In the urban area (Mi1–Mi3), there is a single fare: an urban ticket costs €2.20, is valid for 90 minutes, and includes one metro ride plus transfers on surface transit. There are also a day pass (€7.60), a 3-day pass (€15.50), a weekly pass (€18.50), a 10-ride booklet (€19.50), and monthly (€39.00) and annual (€330.00) passes.
Yes. With the contactless system (CleSS), simply hold your card, smartphone, or smartwatch up to the turnstiles: you pay €2.20 per ride, just like a city bus ticket. You must tap your card when entering and exiting; throughout the day, the total cost for the same device never exceeds €7.60 (automatic daily cap).
The lilac M5 (2013) was Milan’s first automated line, followed by the blue M4 (completed in 2024). Both are driverless, with platform doors and trains running every few minutes. The M4 connects Linate Airport to the city center in about half an hour.
The free ATM app displays schedules, calculates routes, lets you buy tickets, and provides real-time service updates across the entire network.
