Bus and cycle lane in Bajo Llobregat in Viladecans (Barcelona)

Lantania has carried out the construction of a section of the Bajo Llobregat bus and bicycle lane in Barcelona. The works affected the C-245 road as it passes through the municipality of Viladecans with a length of 2,480 metres. Two lanes combining bus, private vehicles and bicycles were built between Pi Margall street and the Paseo de la Marina roundabout. The works also included the building of a large square next to the funeral parlour.

This was the largest of the actions planned for the upgrading of 13 km of the C-245 between the cities of Castelldefels and Cornellà de Llobregat to provide a bus lane, a bicycle lane and order in the urban environment of the road.

This project has transformed the classic road into a corridor that has made the implementation of efficient public transport possible, as well as giving priority to bicycles and pedestrians. The new bus lane will increase commercial speeds on urban stretches by up to 25%, improving traffic safety and the reliability of public transport services. The C-245 road, parallel to the C-32, is fundamental to Bajo Llobregat and transports some 35,000 bus passengers every day.
