Bus station and railway station in Cartagena
Public Transport in Cartagena
The bus and train station are within a 5 minute walk of each other in Cartagena, and within a 10 minute walk of the City centre and old quarter.
Plaza Bastarrache is the formal address given for the railway station, although it is in fact a couple of hundred metres from the Plaza. The bus station is virtually in the Plaza as well, just on the edge of it, so connecting between the two is easy.
Cartagena Bus Station
The public bus services in Spain are run by a number of different private companies , each contracted for a specific route or set of routes, which change according to demand and the season.
This makes providing a translated set of information very difficult, so the best route to researching bus routes is to use the Spanish language council web page www.cartagena .es
