What is Barcelona Metro Line 10?
Line 10 is a new metro line being built in Barcelona, Spain. It will connect the Zona Franca area with Badalona, passing through the city of Barcelona itself. A big part of Line 10 will share tracks with Line 9.
Deepest and Longest Metro Line
When finished, the combined Line 9/10 will be the deepest metro line in Barcelona. It will also be the longest metro line in all of Europe! Building such a big project takes a lot of time and effort.
When will Line 10 be ready?
The line was first expected to open around 2008. However, building a metro line this deep and long has faced many challenges. Because of these issues, the completion of Line 10 has been delayed. It is now expected to be finished much later than planned.
