It was established in 1989 as the C4 line of the genus of Barcelona RENFE, already with the route of Saint- Vicente de Calders-Manresa. Between 1995 and 2005, the R4 branch reached Cerdanyola Universitat. The R4 line is located on the perimeter and connects Penedes with Baix Llobregat, Barcelona, Waltz West and Bages, is the longest commuter line in Barcelona service, with a total of 143 km. The route starts at St. Vicente de Calders, where it runs along the Tarragona-Barcelona line or from the inland territories of the so-called 8 Catalan towards El Vendrell, Vilafranca del Penedes, Sant Sadurne d'Anoella and Martorell. From Martorella the interval of passing trains is intensifies and the route goes down the left bank of the Llobregat River towards the capital region of Barcelona. From L'Hospitalet de Llobregat enters Barcelona Sant and continues through the tunnel Plaza of Catalonia and Avengud Meridian towards Sant Andreu Arnal and Montcada Bifurcasio. Circulating on the Barcelona-Manresa-Lleida line serves several important cities in The West Wallis, such as Serdanola del Valles, Sabadell and Terrassa, where part of the services of the R4 Nord end.

It runs north from the northern borders of Tarragona province to Barcelona, passing through the inner region of Alt Penedes. The line then continues towards central Catalonia, describing a U-shaped route through the Barcelona area. According to 2008 data, the average working day highest on any Barcelona commuter rail line after R2. R4 trains use the Meridian Tunnel in Barcelona, where they share the rodalies de Catalunya rail line in Barcelona R1, R3 and R7, as well as the rgo1 commuter rail line and the R12 regional rail line, causing the stations of The Sants, Plaza de Catalunya and Arc de Triomphe. South of Barcelona they operate on the Sant'Vicen de Calders-Vilafranca del Penedes-Barcelona railway, using Sant'Vicente de Calders as their southern end, north of Barcelona they operate on the Lleida-Manresa-Barcelona railway, with no services ending north of Manresa. Along with the R1, R2 and R3 lines, the R4 (then just the 4th Line) began service in 1989 as one of the first lines of the cercan'as commuter rail system for Barcelona, known as Rodalies Barcelona. In 1995, the branch to the Cerdanyola Universitat train station was opened to serve passengers and was incorporated into the R4 line. With the establishment of the commuter rail line in Barcelona R7 in 2005, the branch was transferred to R7. In the long term, it is projected that the R4 route south of Barcelona will be moved to R2 and all its services will be discontinued at Barcelona-El Prat airport. The following list of stations lists the name of each station served by the R4 line in order to go from south to north; Station service scheme offered by R4 trains; transfers to other Rodallier de Catalonia lines, including both commuter and regional rail; Significant transfers to other transport systems; The municipality where each station is located; and the fare zone each station is owned in accordance with the Autoritat del Transport Metropolit (ATM zrea de Barcelona) fare integrated public transport system and Rodalia Catalonia's own fare zone system for Barcelona commuter rail lines.

The program is sponsored by the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP), funded by the Federal Transit Administration, and managed by the Eno Transportation Foundation. The subject for the 2005 Fall Study Mission was Innovative Techniques in Planning and Finance of Public Transportation Projects. The mission studied systems in Barcelona, Spain; Copenhagen, Denmark; Shanghai, China; and Osaka, Japan. As a participant, the author had the opportunity to meet with the managers for the different systems and learn and document the experience. This paper presents a more detailed insight on the author’s assigned studied systems in Barcelona, the way it has been integrated to become an effective transit system, its financial model, the lessons learned and its possible applications in Puerto Rico and elsewhere.

  • Automated Metro, Safer and More Efficient
    Automated Metro, safer and more efficient State-of-the-art technology at your service Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona Barcelona, on the road to automation The Barcelona Metro is on the road to automation. The medium- or long-term perspective is for 43% of the TMB network (70 to 160 kilometres) to be automated. The new lines, such as the L9/L10, have been conceived as automated lines and some of the existing ones will be progressively converted. Following L9/10, which was put into operation as an automated line from the outset, L2 will have to be technologically converted and adopt automated operation, as was recently done with L11. This is because, when it is extended to the airport through the Parc Logístic fork, L2 will share part of the infrastructure with L9. The two lines will require compatible trains and systems to operate jointly on the same infrastructure. The benefits of automation TMB’s commitment to automation is consistent 2) More passengers in less time with its desire to provide the best possible service.

  • Report2007.Pdf
    2007 IN THE MTA Ten years after the creation of the MTA, this 2007 Report contains many elements of enormous importance and individuality that indicate the order of priorities of the Government of the Gene- ralitat and all associated administrative bodies. In the first place, a review of the 2001-2010 Infrastructure Management Plan (IMP), showed the urgent need for the already begun revision and update. The key financial data is that in 2007, there has been a considerable excess, in absolute terms, of the amount of money allo- cated for the whole period of duration of the IMP. More money, but nevertheless, not yet all the improvement work, and some of this pending work still under discussion or modification. This is the case of Metro line 12. The agreement has been to replace it by extensions to some lines and the construction of a new Cornellà-Castelldefels railway line. It is therefore urgent to have a revised IMP that adapts to this new reality. JOAQuim NADAL I FarrEraS The physical translation of the work included in the IMP is now more than evident in the Councillor for Territorial Policy follow-up map. The map is very spectacular and shows the immensity of the process of mo- and Public Works and President of the MTA dernisation, change and adaptation of accesses of the whole public transport network of the metropolitan region. The fact that this enormous volume of work still has few obvious repercus- sions is a problem that must be resolved. This means making the progress of the work and the inconveniences corresponding to its materialisation compatible with the successive enjoyment of the improvements as they are completed and put into practice.

  • Planning System of Metro Networks. Comparison Between Copenhagen and Barcelona Jordi Frigola Almar 57
    Planning system of metro networks. Comparison between Copenhagen and Barcelona 3. The Barcelona’s metro 3.1. Introduction Barcelona, unlike Copenhagen, has a big metro network for more than 80 years. This metro, together with suburban railways, bus service and the new tram provides Barcelona with a great public transport network to move through the Metropolitan region. However, the increase of population, work places and the development of private transport need to offer a better public service, with better connections between different transport modes to compete directly with the private transport, such as cars and motorbikes. For that reason, in 1997, the Metropolitan Transport Authority (ATM) was created in order to plan the public transport infrastructures in the Barcelona Metropolitan Area. Aside from that, ATM acts as a mediator between the public Administrative and the different operators that take part in the public transport. Hence, ATM created the Infrastructure Master Plan for public transport 2001-2010 (PDI), which basically describes the development of the public transport in the Barcelona Metropolitan Region within the next years. That means the improvement of the actual network, enlarging the existing lines, putting new rolling stock, etc, or creating new ones to fulfil the demand. But also ATM is responsible to plan and coordinate the services, define an integration fare system and manage the mobility. One of the most important infrastructure within the PDI and improvement in the public transport will be the new metro line, L9, the largest in Europe, which will connect the Barcelona’s airport with L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, the northern part of Barcelona, Santa Coloma de Gramenet and Badalona, as well as The Zona Franca, which is the largest industrial area in Spain.
