Overview
- The 2026 Pla Endreça program funds up to 1,300 maintenance and renewal works across the city, with €18.4 million earmarked for escalators and inclined elevators.
- The city will replace 24 escalators and modernize 13 urban elevators, with individual projects expected to take four to six months.
- New age limits set no operating escalator older than 20 years and no urban elevator older than 15, targeting renewal of 25% of escalators and 50% of elevators.
- A new maintenance contract and expanded spare‑parts stock are designed to reduce recurring outages and speed repairs.
- Priority work will roll out in Sarrià-Sant Gervasi, Horta-Guinardó and Nou Barris, following reports of access impacts such as a 40% drop in CAP visits during a Carmel outage.
