This is what the bus on the L1 line (between Veronica and Hospital) looked like last year

This is a different route to the one I posted the time table for (L3) between the bus station and Santa Ana. L1 is the main Bus service for Antequera as it carries the most passengers

It's old information but the L1 line back in 2006 ran every half hour until 3:15pm and then hourly.
For the L2 there was a 45 minute wait between buses (frequency having been increased as it was originally a bus an hour)

The main polemic now (or from late last year) is that the local authorities haven't been paying the Protomed-10 company which runs the buses the agreed annual subsidy for several years. This amount owed is now over half a million Euros. In protest, the private transport company hasn't spent any money on maintaining the bus station or the vehicles.

Apart from the odd strike, I've not seen any sign that the services themselves have been affected but there's no guarantee that they won't be when you're there.
