<p>In <a href="Railway" class="mw-redirect" title="Railway">railway</a> and <a href="Rapid_transit" title="Rapid transit">rapid transit</a> parlance, the <b>Spanish solution</b> is a station layout with two <a href="Railway_platform" title="Railway platform">railway platforms</a>, one on each side of the track,<sup id="cite_ref-vdi2013_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-vdi2013-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> which allows for separate platforms for boarding and alighting.

</p><p>The "Spanish solution" is used in several stations of the <a href="Madrid_Metro" title="Madrid Metro">Madrid Metro</a> (e.g. <a href="Avenida_de_Am%C3%A9rica_(Madrid_Metro)" title="Avenida de América (Madrid Metro)">Avenida de América</a>) and <a href="Barcelona_Metro" title="Barcelona Metro">Barcelona Metro</a> (e.g. <a href="Sant_Andreu_(Barcelona_Metro)" title="Sant Andreu (Barcelona Metro)">Sant Andreu</a>).

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Description">Description</h2></div>

<p>This platform arrangement allows the separation of passenger streams by using one platform only for boarding, and the other one only for alighting.<sup id="cite_ref-vdi2013_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-vdi2013-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The separate designation of platforms for boarding and alighting has been proven effective at reducing <a href="Dwell_time_(transportation)" title="Dwell time (transportation)">dwell time</a> at stations with high passenger numbers.<sup id="cite_ref-fendrich2007_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-fendrich2007-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The Spanish solution is most commonly applied at high-frequency underground <a href="Rapid_transit" title="Rapid transit">metro</a> stations. Stations are sometimes retrofitted to include a Spanish solution layout to expand the capacity of existing stations when there is no space to widen the existing platform, an issue that can occur in <a href="Island_platform" title="Island platform">island platform</a> configurations.

</p><p>To encourage passengers to exit to the correct platform, arriving trains typically first open their doors facing the platform for alighting passengers, and then open the doors for boarding passengers after a slight delay.

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Examples">Examples</h2></div>

<p>An example of the Spanish Solution is the <a href="Munich_Karlsplatz_station" title="Munich Karlsplatz station">Karlsplatz (Stachus)</a> station on the <a href="Munich_S-Bahn" title="Munich S-Bahn">Munich S-Bahn</a>, which has <a href="Island_platform" title="Island platform">island platforms</a> for boarding and side platforms for alighting.

</p><p>Additionally this solution can be found on several Metro de Madrid stations: Sainz de Baranda, Avenida de America and many others.
