A change needed for mobility
V19’s travelers expressed their concerns for months, because of the great passengers’ leverage that use this service that connects the Barceloparine with Als Comin Square, passing by Güll Park. The buses often reach their maximum capacity, difficult access to their neighbors and generate discomfort.
Modifiers in the tours
In order to improve the situation, Transport Metropolitans of Barcelona (TMB) announced significant changes on the path of V19, which will come into force since Saturday. New itinerarys are designed to adjust the needs of passengers, including three different parts.
New Track Details
The three tours that will be released are:
- [‘usual morning: Barcelonine Square of Aluns Compin.’, ‘South Walk: Barceloneta – Greengue, available from 10 to 21 hours.’, ‘Walking mountain: On the bridge X – Vallcarca bridge, 10-to 18 hours operating, with upload service only.’]
Increasing capacity and frequency
The president of TMB, Laia Bonet, has reported that with additional vehicles, the V19 line can transport up to 800 passengers per hour, significantly improving the service offer to both north and south of the tour. This measure seeks not only to lighten the current load, but also guarantee better experience for users.
Etratergies for better cohabitation
Bonet has also indicated that these measures are linked with other initiatives to facilitate cohabitation between tourism and residents, such as the removal of Google16 Map as an option to access Güll Park and extension of traffic constraint areas in the area of the park.
V19 line usage data
In 2024, the V19 line registered more than 6 million trips, a 10% increase in the previous year. In working days, more than 19,000 validates have been recorded, with 14,000 and 12,000 dollars during holidays, demonstrating the large demand of this service.
Client information and attention
For those who need additional information, TMB offers a client focus service available through the 9001 1449 phone, which operates on Monday Sunday on 8 to 21 hours, as well as an information account on social networks.
