TheLlobregat–Anoia Line (Catalan:Línia Llobregat-Anoia) is an unconnectedmetre gauge railway line linkingBarcelona with theBaix Llobregat,Bages andAnoia regions, inCatalonia,Spain. Its name refers to the fact that it follows the course of theLlobregat andAnoia rivers for most of its length.Plaça d'Espanya station serves as the Barcelona terminus of the line, then continuing northwards toMartorell, where two main branches toManresa andIgualada are formed. It also includes several freight branches, accounting for a total line length of 138 kilometres (86 mi) and 41 passenger stations.

Barcelona Metro line 8, together with a number ofcommuter andfreight rail services, runs on the line's main route between Barcelona andSant Boi de Llobregat. The section between Barcelona andOlesa de Montserrat is operated as a high-frequency commuter rail system known asBaix Llobregat Metro (Catalan:Metro del Baix Llobregat), with some services continuing northwards to Manresa and Igualada. The Llobregat–Anoia Line is part of theAutoritat del Transport Metropolità (ATM) fare-integrated public transport system for theBarcelona metropolitan area.

History

[edit]

Share of the Tranvía o Ferrocarril Económico de Manresa a Berga, issued 1 January 1902.

The Llobregat–Anoia Line originated from three formerly separate narrow gauge railway lines:Tranvía o Ferrocarril Económico de Manresa a Berga (opened in 1885),Ferrocarril Central Catalán (opened in 1893) andCamino de Hierro del Nordeste de España, built to quickly and cheaply give passenger and freight transportation to the rapidly industrialising Llobregat area. The Metro del Baix Llobregat designation was first introduced on this line in 2000, and the line 8 service has been formally included in the Barcelona Metro network since 6 November 2003.

Development plans

[edit]

Geographically accurate map of Barcelona Metro line 8

In January 2017, the Catalan government approved a plan to extend the Llobregat–Anoia line from Plaça d'Espanya through the city as far asGràcia station, also stopping atHospital Clínic andFrancesc Macià station, thereby linking with theBarcelona–Vallès Line, at an estimated cost of over €300 million.^[3] A second phase is also being considered to extend the line towards theBesòs station in the eastern part of the city.^[4]
