construction The construction of the new un- derground station and the acces- ses will be integrated into the new development and will meet the criteria of a sustainable, accessi - ble and functional station and will have three tracks, one of which will be new, and two side plat - forms. It will also have a central track, without a platform, which will be used by regional trains that will not make stops. The pro - ject configures future operating schemes for the local rail network around Barcelona and the metro - politan area. The FCC Group’s construc- tion division has built more than 3,500 kilometres of rai - lway track, both infrastructu - re and superstructure, on all types of this means of trans- port, from high-speed trains, metro lines and trams, inclu - ding the maintenance and renovation of existing lines and the construction of new stations. This is one of the largest railway projects currently underway on the Spanish conventional network and one of the most ambitious actions of the Transformem Rodalies Plan The project configures future schemes for the operation of the local railway network around Barcelona and its metropolitan area A benchmark in railway tracks The underground route will begin at the Can Sant Joan neighbour- hood and will be sunk to 35 me - tres, with a tunnel that will pass under an aquifer and the station will be located in the vicinity of the current station. The new rou- te was calculated with parame - ters suitable for traffic speeds of up to 140 kilometres per hour and maximum ramps of 3%. Improved safety It will also increase safety con - ditions for residents and railway operations by eliminating the two-level crossings located in this area, with a high density of vehicle and pedestrian traffic and in a network with a large number of circulations on Rodalies lines R2 and R11. The integration will create new spaces for coexisten - ce and socio-economic revitali - sation and will contribute to the reduction of the carbon footprint. B U S I N E S S B U S I N E S S 21
