[edit] Line 2

Barcelona Metro line 2 station was opened in 1985 as part of Barcelona Metro line 4 with the opening of the line between La Pau and Pep Ventura. In 2002, this part of L4 was integrated as part of L2. The station is located under the intersection of Avinguda Marquès de Mont-roig and Antoni Bori street and has two accesses from the street. All accesses join at the main hall, situated in the central part of the station. The trains run on the lower level where there are two platforms equipped with fixed stairs, escalators and elevators.

[edit] Line 10

Barcelona Metro line 10 station was opened in April 2010 with the opening of the line from this station to Bon Pastor. It is located under the intersection of Avinguda del Marquès de Mont-roig i Pau Claris street. Unlike other L9/L10 stations, this one has been built with an only level and has an only access from the street equipped with fixed stairs, escalators and elevators. This access goes to the main hall, where the end of the metro tracks can be seen. At the central platform there are two groups of accesses that link line 10 with line 2 station.
