Pla Besòs

The lower stretch of the Besòs River, before reaching the Mediterranean Sea, flows though urban areas home to almost one million people in three districts of Barcelona and the towns of Santa Coloma, Sant Adrià, Montcada and Badalona. Through collaboration between the cities and shared leadership, the Plan’s aim is to transform the Besòs Axis into a metropolitan hub, giving priority to issues such as city planning, combating inequality, promoting the economy and restructuring industry, protecting the environment, improving infrastructures and boosting research and university premises with the Campus Diagonal-Besòs.
