Barcelona is set to gain a new semi-direct Rodalies service to Tarragona, with some journeys taking a little over an hour. The new route is being launched by the Department of Territory.
The express service is designed to cut travel times by up to 20 minutes compared with current options. It is aimed at making rail travel between the two cities quicker and more practical for regular passengers.
For readers following local transport updates in the city, you can also keep an eye on our Community coverage for wider changes that affect daily life in Barcelona.
The new service adds another direct option for people travelling between Barcelona and Tarragona, two of the busiest urban centres in Catalonia. It is part of the wider Rodalies network, which continues to be a key part of everyday travel for commuters and visitors alike.
We will keep tracking transport changes that affect Barcelona first, including rail, road and city links. For more local coverage, see our Sport page for another area of city life we follow closely.
