Future tram developments[edit]

A tram spanning the Vallès area, linking it to northern Barcelona and the so-called Metro del Vallès, has been proposed under the name Tramvallès, following the convention initiated with Trambaix (for Baix Llobregat), and Trambesòs (after the Besòs river). As of 2010 it remains under consideration by the Autoritat del Transport Metropolità.[1]
