Cambrils says yes to the greenway of the old train: now only Mont-roig is missing to complete the circuit

Cambrils is experiencing a key moment: the municipal council approved this Friday the lease contract with Adif to convert the old railway line into a greenway. A decision that not only transforms a physical space but also connects histories and futures.

But what does this approval really mean? And why is only Mont-roig del Camp missing to complete the puzzle? Now we explain it in depth.

The key step of Cambrils for the greenway

The majority support and Vox’s exception

In an extraordinary session, all parties except Vox voted in favor of the contract with Adif. Mayor Oliver Klein made it clear that, despite losing a six million euro European grant, the project was not at risk. This means that the greenway moves forward without paralysis, news that matters to everyone who lives in or passes through Cambrils.

The importance of the lease with Adif

The contract with Adif is the key to start the works. Without it, nothing can move. This agreement will make possible the transformation of the old railway line, a space that for years has been waiting for a new life.

The role of neighboring municipalities in the project

Vandellòs and L'Hospitalet de l'Infant already in action

Last week, Vandellòs and L'Hospitalet de l'Infant approved their contract with Adif. This means they are already completing the preliminary steps to start the works. Coordination between these municipalities is vital to ensure the continuity of the greenway.

Mont-roig del Camp, the final pending step

So far, only Mont-roig del Camp has not completed the procedure at the council session. It is the last step before beginning to transform this connection between municipalities into a green and accessible route for everyone.

What do residents expect and what impact will it have?

Benefits for local mobility and recreation

The greenway will not only serve for walking or sports. It is a step forward for more sustainable mobility, connecting towns and promoting local tourism. What was once an underused space can become the epicenter of neighborhood activity.

The economic and social challenge

Despite the loss of European funds, the Cambrils City Council is committed to moving forward. This project can revitalize forgotten areas, create opportunities, and, as a result, generate a sense of belonging. Because, after all, the greenway is more than a path: it is a shared future project.

The reality is that this project not only transforms an old railway line but also sets a new chapter for these municipalities. The greenway will be a meeting point, a space to rediscover the province and, why not say it, a symbol of hope and collaboration.
