Macul is a metro station on the Line 4 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. The station occupies the central viaduct of three adjacent overpasses. The other elevated bridges carry three one-way lanes each of Vespucio Sur. It is located on the site of a former roundabout, where Américo Vespucio Avenue, La Florida Avenue, Macul Avenue and Departamental Avenue used meet. The latter ones currently pass under the aforementioned viaducts, as does a canal called Zanjón de la Aguada. The station was opened on 2 March 2006 as part of the connection between Grecia and Vicente Valdés.^[3]

On October 18, 2019, in the framework of the protests in Chile, the station suffered a fire that affected mezzanine, the ticket office and a train that was parked on the platforms, which would prevent its normal operation for several months. The station remained closed until August 12, 2020 when the station was reopened.^[4]

It is expected that by 2032 this station will be combined with the future Line 8.^[2]
