Overview

• Rail service is suspended on the R2 Sud between Gavà and Sitges from 22 to 28 September, with trains operating only on the Barcelona Estació de França–Gavà and Garraf–Sant Vicenç de Calders stretches.
• Renfe’s contingency plan fields 55 coaches offering 41,000 seats per day, with direct Gavà–Sitges buses every 15 minutes and Cunit–Zona Universitària links every 30 minutes for regional services.
• Morning rollout brought long queues and slower trips at key points such as Sitges’ Passeig de Vilafranca and the Vilanova bus station, while authorities described operations as generally agile.
• Boarding for substitute services is near most stations except in Sitges and Castelldefels Platja, tickets from Rodalies and regional services are valid on the buses after station validation, and accessibility is maintained.
• Test runs are planned on Sunday 28 September with operators indicating service could resume that afternoon, and Adif has warned of a separate multi‑month Garraf tunnel maintenance closure expected in late 2025 or early 2026.
