Low emissions
If you are going to travel to/from Barcelona you have to keep in mind that the city has a low emissions zone in which circulation is restricted to older vehicles. It is an area of 95 km2 that includes certain areas of the city (those closest to the ring roads) and some municipalities in its metropolitan area. The circulation of the most polluting vehicles will be restricted in these areas.
Therefore, we recommend that before arriving in Barcelona (to embark or disembark) you consult the affected areas and the requirements that vehicles must follow in order to circulate.
