Eje Central is a station on Line 12 of the Mexico City Metro.[3] The station is located between Parque de los Venados and Ermita. It was opened on 30 October 2012 as a part of the first stretch of Line 12 between Mixcoac and Tláhuac.[3]

Name and pictogram

The station receives its name due to being located at the intersection between Eje Central (Lázaro Cardenas) and Avenida Popocatépetl. The station's pictogram shows the outline of a Mexico City trolleybus, since Line 1 of Mexico City trolleybus service (also known as the Zero Emissions Corridor) runs all the way on the Eje Central.[4]

General information

The station is located south of the city center in the Portales Sur neighborhood in the Benito Juárez borough and it is built underground.[5]

From 23 April to 22 June 2020, the station was temporarily closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Mexico.[6] [7]
