Work under way to remodel Carrer de Menéndez y Pelayo in the area around the Camp Nou

Work is now under way to reurbanise Carrer de Menéndez y Pelayo, one of the projects resulting from the new urban plan to transform the area around the Camp Nou and create a large open space for local people, eliminating barriers and adding more green zones and bike lanes. The work will be paid for by the club and is expected to be completed in February 2023.

The work in Carrer de Menéndez y Pelayo involves an area of 22,000 square metres, over 4,000 of which will be for green zones. A cycle lane will be created in each direction, pavements widened and new urban furniture installed, along with more efficient new lighting and 65 trees.

A new bike lane will help towards sustainable mobility along the length of the street and connect with the one in Av. Joan XXIII to reach Av. Diagonal. The roundabout between Av. Joan XXIII and Menéndez y Pelayo will also be adapted to improve traffic circulation, with a garden strip next to La Masia also to be completed.

Funeral services and the vehicles of those attending the funeral home in Les Corts will be able to access it during and after the work is carried out.
