R2 commuter trains will stop at Gavà rather than continue to Castelldefels from 12th November until 14th December, meaning passengers for Castelldefels will need to change trains. Renfe, the train operator, announced the interruption on Monday 9th November because of work by railway infrastructure manager Adif.

[Rodalies de Catalunya](https://rodalies.gencat.cat/es/detalls/article/09%5F15%5FAeroport?ref=barna.news) lists the service notice on its website.

The change affects Rodalies, Catalonia’s commuter rail network. Renfe said passengers who need to continue from Gavà to Castelldefels should transfer to an R2 Sud service.

The interruption will last for more than a month, affecting regular travellers on the section, particularly at busy times.

## Changing trains at Gavà

For passengers planning an R2 journey during the works, the announced arrangements are:

- The interruption between Gavà and Castelldefels begins on 12th November and is due to remain in place until 14th December.
- R2 trains will terminate at Gavà station during that period.
- Passengers continuing to Castelldefels will need to connect with an R2 Sud train.

Renfe has advised passengers to check timetables before travelling and plan their journeys in advance. That advice applies throughout the announced interruption, including to people who normally travel on the affected section at peak times.

Passengers can check the [Rodalies service status and alternative transport information](https://rodalies.gencat.cat/ca/detalls/article/01%5F26%5FConsulta%5Ftransport?ref=barna.news) when planning a journey.

## Earlier works at Castelldefels station

In a separate earlier notice, Rodalies set out a road replacement service for R2 Sud and southern regional train passengers during work at Castelldefels station from 22nd to 28th September.

That notice said empty test trains would run on the morning of the 28th, with service expected to resume from 2pm. Those arrangements concerned the earlier works, not the R2 interruption announced for November and December.
