Future
Since 20 December 2022 the AVE high-speed rail system is serving Murcia via the Madrid–Levante high-speed rail network and construction works are ongoing for the Murcia–Almería high-speed rail line with extensive modifications for the train station in order platforms and track to be relocated underground. In October 2017, protesters against the underground alignment blocked the track leading to the station, leading to multiple train cancellations. The new station is expected to be finished by 2024 at a cost of 11 million euros.
