Get about safely on your motorbike wherever you go
Motorbikes account for 25% of journeys made by private vehicles in Barcelona and 7% of overall mobility in the city. They make up a particularly vulnerable group, alongside pedestrians, given their high accident rates. We are working to improve their safety through a variety of initiatives.
The new Bicing service is under way
The upgrading of the Bicing system has begun. New bike stations, new website, new app, new user support office and new bicycles.
Watch where you go on your electric scooter
An electric scooter is not a toy. You need to abide by the rules for these types of vehicle, as well as the city's general traffic regulations. Remember that scooters, electric unicycles, electric hoverboards and the like are not allowed to ride along pavements.
Over 200 kilometres of cyclable networks
Since the beginning of 2018, 22 new cycle lanes have been opened and 13 more are expected to be open in the next few months. The new lanes are designed to consolidate the use of bikes as a safe, sustainable means of transport.
Implementation of the mainline bus network set to be completed
The last five mainline services of the new bus network will come into service on 26 November, concluding a roll-out period spanning seven years.
The L10 connects La Marina
Residents of the La Marina neighbourhood can now take the metro. Two of the five stations planned for the new L10 line are now operating: Foc and Foneria The other three connect with L9 South, L1 and L5, so the L10 line makes getting from La Marina to wherever you want to go much quicker.

City HEALTH
Barcelona is heading towards fume-free sustainable mobility.
The world’s big cities must reduce greenhouse gas emissions as part of the fight against climate change. Because we cannot let the way we get around affect the future of the planet or the generations to come. For the right to get around. For the right to a healthy city.
