Tour of vintage buses
Historic vehicles will visit neighbourhoods and cities to raise awareness of the heritage of transport.
Urban buses and their operating routes are linked to historical and emotional memory, to the daily lives of millions of people and to the mobility and connectivity of local areas.
The Foundation’s vintage buses will be visiting Barcelona districts and metropolitan municipalities in 2022 which are connected by the TMB bus network.
Vintage buses will be present at annual festivals and special days, with members of the public able to hop on board for short trips around the local area.
