Aliados is an underground light rail station on line D of the Porto Metro system in Porto, Portugal. It is situated to the south of Porto City Hall and under the Avenida dos Aliados , one of central Porto's main streets, from which it takes its name.[1]
The central tunnelled section of line D, including Aliados station, opened on 17 September 2005, with trains initially running between Câmara de Gaia , to the south, and Pólo Universitário to the north. The line has since been extended from Câmara de Gaia to Vila d’Este , and from Pólo Universitário to Hospital de São João.[2][3]
The station is preceded by Trindade and followed by São Bento stations. On weekdays, trains run every five to six minutes, declining to every 10 minutes on weekends and evenings.[2][4]
The station platforms are underground, and there are two through tracks, each served by a side platform. Porto tram line 22 also stops at the Avenida dos Aliados near the station.[1][2]
