Camp de Tarragona is a railway station, opened on 19 December 2006, on the Madrid-Barcelona high-speed rail line between Madrid and Barcelona. Located between the municipalities of La Secuita and Perafort[1], some 8 km north of Tarragona itself, the new station serves an area with an estimated population of over 400,000.
The station complex, covering 5.2 hectares, has eight standard-gauge tracks (four platform roads and four central through roads), two 400-metre-long island platforms, passenger handling facilities, a travel centre, shops, and parking for 648 vehicles.
The final completion of the high speed railway to the French frontier is planned for 2012.
