The Generalitat de Catalunya has initiated the public information process for the informative and environmental impact study of the extension of Line 4 of the Barcelona metro between La Pau and La Sagrera.
The public information process will allow citizens and stakeholders to provide input and suggestions on the project.
This space is intended to evaluate the environmental and social impact of the project and ensure that it is carried out in the most efficient and sustainable manner possible.

The Line 4 extension project aims to significantly increase the connectivity and robustness of Barcelona’s public transport system.
The aim is to facilitate connections with lines L1, L5 and L9, as well as with Rodalies and high-speed trains.
The goal is for the extension to capture a demand of 43,000 users per day, which translates into more than 15 million passengers per year.
The project will have a total investment of 375 million euros and will save 3,860 hours in working days and the emission of 1,000 tons of carbon dioxide per year.
The new stations and works for the extension of Metro Line 4
The Barcelona Metro Line 4 extension project will have three new stations, one of which, Santander, will be located between La Pau and Sagrera-TAV.
While most of the tunnel needed for this new extension is already built (it is used for lines L9 and L10 north), the project will require the excavation of a new 320-meter open cut tunnel between screens and some work on the two existing tunnel sections.
The Government declared that 100% of the civil works for La Sagrera-TAV and La Sagrera stations have already been completed.
The main objective of the project is to improve the mobility of citizens and reduce travel times.
In addition, it will also contribute to reducing pollution in the city, which is in line with the administration’s environmental objectives.
The extension of Line 4 of the Barcelona metro will allow citizens to travel more efficiently and sustainably.
This will improve their quality of life and the environment in the city.

The Barcelona Metro Line 4 extension project is part of the Government’s infrastructure investment plan. The main objective is to improve the quality of life of citizens and promote economic growth in the region.
Investment in infrastructure is crucial to ensure the economic and social development of a region. And in the case of Barcelona and Catalonia, effective and high quality mobility is crucial.
