Currently, these localities depend exclusively on the R1 line of Rodalies for their commutes to the Catalan capital. This reliance creates significant problems when railway incidents occur, leaving users without public transport options.

The area between Mataró and Canet is particularly underserved if the train fails, with no alternative bus lines, either with or without stops. Although Vilassar de Mar has a bus service, it makes multiple stops in other municipalities, which is why its residents also join the demand for a direct connection to Barcelona.

Peak hours continue to be a challenge for many users, who endure long queues and stand-up journeys. Despite Moventis increasing the number of routes by 40% over the last five years, the supply fails to meet growing demand, amidst a significant boom in interurban bus transport across Catalonia.
