In March 2025, <a href="https://en.ara.cat/society/escalators-and-elevators-stopped-at-dozens-of-stations_1_5339518.html" >more than half of the elevators (52%) and almost half of the escalators at Rodalies stations </a>were not working. "The situation was absolutely unsustainable, undesirable, and inadmissible," assures the Minister of Territory, Sílvia Paneque. According to the Government, Renfe, and Adif, this situation of "neglect" has now been reversed.</p>]]></description>
