Line 4 is a light rail service that forms part of the Metrovalencia network. It links the Port of Valencia with the municipalities of Paterna and Burjassot, running through the historic Pont de Fusta station. The line opened on May 21, 1994. During major trade events, some services are extended to the Fira València exhibition center.
The line was created by transforming a former suburban railway branch between Empalme and Pont de Fusta into a modern tramway.
