Quilmes relocation guide

Getting around Quilmes

Roca trains link stations in Quilmes district with Constitución, La Plata and Bosques via Quilmes. Your branch, fare section and last connection matter.

On this page

The short answer

The Roca network places Don Bosco, Bernal, Quilmes and Ezpeleta on the corridor toward Berazategui. Services then continue toward La Plata or Bosques. Check the train destination and current timetable, and try the walk from the station to the actual home or service before choosing a location.

  • The operator publishes separate Constitución to La Plata and Bosques via Quilmes branch pages.
  • The Roca fare sheet effective September 1, 2026 has three registered-SUBE sections.
  • Unregistered SUBE costs twice the corresponding section. Cash has a separate fare.
  • A network schematic shows connections, not neighborhood boundaries, entrance locations or step-free access.

The final walk and other transport

Measure the actual trip to work, school, care or UNQ, including the return. Bernal university travel and a journey to Solano are different trips. Ask about current local bus routes, payment and fares for the destination; no complete local bus timetable or fare is supplied here.4,9,14

The selected rentals include upstairs apartments and two-floor homes. Check the station entrance, pavement, crossings and home stairs if access matters. A station on a network diagram does not confirm working lifts or an accessible door-to-door journey.5,6,7,13
