Overview
- Mayor Jaume Collboni set a roadmap with public participation in 2026, procurement late 2026 to early 2027, and construction beginning at the end of 2027, with service unlikely before roughly 2031–2033.
- The plan couples the line’s return with a full redesign of Avinguda del Tibidabo plus an underground stormwater tank, making the infrastructure works and the tram restoration inseparable.
- City officials estimate a cost of about €45–46 million and aim to include the project in the 2027 budget, though financing and approval timing remain uncertain.
- Of the seven protected tramcars, four will be rebuilt to operate and three will be preserved as heritage assets.
- The city will study placing a historic tramcar on display at Plaça Kennedy as a temporary exhibit for the 125th anniversary while the long works proceed.
