The installations, completed during the summer months, form part of a broader initiative to enhance public transport infrastructure and user experience. The project falls under the city’s bus shelter renovation and installation contract, which includes both upgrading deteriorating existing structures and expanding shelter coverage to uncovered stops. According to the council, over 100 bus shelters will be upgraded by the end of 2026, including six entirely new stops in areas that previously had no bus service. --- ## Focus on Accessibility and Urban Comfort Bus shelters play a key role in making public transport more accessible, particularly for elderly residents, people with reduced mobility, and other vulnerable groups. They offer protection from weather and contribute to safer, more comfortable waiting conditions. The improvements are aligned with L'Hospitalet’s Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan, which aims to promote efficient, equitable, and environmentally responsible movement within the city. Further details on the plan are available via the [city's official mobility portal](https://www.l-h.cat/webs/mediambient/2503135%5F1.aspx?id=1&ref=barna.news). - 26 shelters installed this summer - Over 100 shelters to be upgraded by end of 2026 - Six new stops added in previously unserved areas ### Broader Urban Furniture Renewal The current contract also includes upgrades to other urban amenities.
