Barcelona’s Trambesòs tram service will be suspended this summer for improvement works, according to the Ajuntament de Barcelona. The interruption will affect daily commuters and visitors who use the network in the city.

The works are intended to improve the service and the infrastructure of the Trambesòs lines. The city council has not yet given the exact dates for the suspension or the replacement transport arrangements.

Passengers will need to use other transport during the works, with buses and the metro likely to carry more demand in the affected areas. The council usually sets up substitute bus services during this kind of disruption to reduce inconvenience.

The Trambesòs system links parts of Barcelona, including Sant Martí, and also serves Sant Adrià de Besòs. Summer is often chosen for major infrastructure work because passenger numbers are usually lower than at other times of year.
