The mayor of the Catalan capital has put pressure on the operators, demanding that the Rodalies de Catalunya service return to full operation "as quickly as possible," insisting that such situations must "never happen again in the future".
“"The situation of chaos and lack of control in Rodalies is unacceptable from the users' point of view."
Despite the harsh criticism regarding infrastructure management, Collboni stood by his party, the PSC, and the PSOE. He defended that both the Spanish and Catalan governments have been "focused" on resolving the railway crisis that began last Tuesday.
Furthermore, the mayor defended himself against criticism received after the publication of an image showing him flipping through a magazine during the crisis, attributing the photo's release to an "error" by his communication team, thus deflecting responsibility from his municipal executive.
