==Transport== It is connected to central Valencia by bus routes. The town's railway stations Xirivella-L'Alter and Xirivella-Alqueries have been inactive since April 2020 and January 2021 when service was suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic and both stations are expected to be dismantled. Metro links exist in the nearby town of Mislata. The proposed Line 14 of Metrovalencia is due to link the town to the rest of the metro network after 2030.
