The Rodalies train service on the R1 and RG1 lines will be interrupted between Barcelona and Badalona due to infrastructure works scheduled from January 3 to 11, 2026.

The disruption, lasting nine days, is due to essential work aimed at improving the railway network in the Barcelona metropolitan area. This closure will force users to seek alternative transport methods during the first full week of the year.

The interruption will particularly affect commuters traveling daily from the Maresme region and northern Catalonia towards the Catalan capital.

The works will focus on the section connecting the Clot-Aragó and Badalona stations, a critical point in the network. Renfe and Adif are finalizing alternative transport plans to ensure passenger mobility.
Alternative services are expected to include shuttle buses connecting the affected points, although users are advised to check schedules and plan their journeys in advance to avoid delays.
