Description
La Sagrera Station constitutes a major intermodal center strongly articulated with the surrounding city: 100 million passengers may annually move through its facilities.
Its development occupies a rectangular strip of 600m length and 130m width, with a section organized into five main levels – platforms and commuter lobby, high speed train lobby, platforms, and cover / park – and a semi buried position that is the key to understanding its urban dimension. In this sense, volumetric expression and its landscaped surface provide the strongest characteristic of external appearance and offer a first class public space both for its role as an element that continues the large linear park planned on laying roads, and its ability to restore links between urban neighborhoods, Sant Andreu and Sant Martí.
