Llobregat-Anoia line of FGC commuter rail system extension project in Barcelona

project awarded

The project involves the expansion of the Llobregat-Anoia line of the Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya (FGC) commuter rail system in Barcelona, Spain.The scope of work includes the construction of a 4 km tunnel and 3 new stations, along with the upgrading of 2 existing stations. Its main objective is to enhance and expand public transport coverage in a densely populated area of Barcelona by establishing connections to essential facilities like Hospital Clínic and the industrial engineering school. The Llobregat-Anoia line extension will link the FGC Vallès and Baix Llobregat-Anoia lines, leading to improved service and a reduction of transit time by an average of 4.5 minutes due to the elimination of train changes. Additionally, the project will facilitate interconnections, as the new stations will offer links to Barcelona Metro line 5, the light rail system, and other FGC lines.
