Bus depot in Horta

The bus depot is set into the topography, reconstructing a green area on the surface. The project is built on a site where city meets mountain. The parking space for buses is housed beneath the new slab, laid out on two levels, while the other facilities, such as the garage for repairs and the offices, are accommodated in a separate building. The facilities service a fleet of 256 standard and 54 articulated buses, with an entrance and exit to connect them with Barcelona’s ring roads.
