  • 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.

  • The Barcelona Market System
    261 The Barcelona Market System Manuel Guàrdia, José Luis Oyón and Nadia Fava Barcelona appears as an interesting case study in the research on modern market systems because of its singularity, despite the fact that her first steps towards modernisation were taken somewhat belatedly in comparison with pioneering countries such as England or France. Considered in the long term, the process was more constant and ended up consolidating an extraordinary market system that is virtually unique in contemporary urban Europe. Not only has it preserved a remarkable architectural heritage that still exists today, but it has also played a leading part in the municipal politics of the last decade. In those countries where it has been the object of more study, the mar- ket system would gradually give way to ‘more modern’ commercial formulas during the second half of the twentieth century. In Barcelona, however, mar- kets underwent a decisive modernisation and an almost explosive growth, increasing in number from the eighteen that existed in 1940 to the forty that exist today, and from the nineteen sixties onwards old market buildings have been, and are still being, renovated. This fact seems to be related to two significant issues: the late introduction of new forms of retail distribution and the comparatively compact urban growth over the nineteen fifties and sixties. In the nineteen eighties, municipal technical services began to consider the market system a key asset for restructuring retail networks in neighbour- hoods and a tool enabling commercial urbanism to control the oligopoly of hypermarkets. Despite the fact that the latest renovations have placed architecture and urban planning once again in the foreground, we should not regard market buildings from an exclusively architectural point of view but consider the system as a whole as a case study that sometimes seems to contradict the processes undergone in other cities of the Western world.
