According to the demand study available on the Metro do Porto website, in 2026, the year in which the line is expected to start, 11.4 million passengers are expected on the route, which will also pass through the Devesas railway station, in Vila Nova de Gaia (Porto district).
These figures include the increase of 404,000 passengers in induced demand, that is, demand "that did not exist in the transport system before the network extension came into operation".
