Technicians from Adif are inspecting the area to assess the damage and determine when service can be restored. Although the earth did not fall onto the tracks and no trains were involved, the measure was taken strictly “as a precaution”. Renfe has had to enable alternative road transport to L'Hospitalet to minimize disruption for passengers.
