ROMERO POLO COMPLETES THE NEW OVERPASS IN VALLFOGONA DE BALAGUER

Romero Polo has completed the construction of the new overpass in Vallfogona de Balaguer, a key infrastructure project aimed at improving the Lleida – La Pobla de Segur railway line, as part of the initiative promoted by Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya (FGC). This project has enabled the removal of level crossing number 16, enhancing both rail and road safety in the area.

The project consists of a 12.3-meter-long, 10-meter-wide overpass, featuring two 3.5-meter lanes and a pedestrian walkway. The new structure is located 96 meters south of the former level crossing, above the railway line, and will provide safer access to the surroundings of the C-13 road.

With a budget of €980,000 (excluding VAT), the new overpass is part of a broader set of improvements that FGC is implementing to progressively eliminate level crossings throughout its network, with the aim of improving safety for both users and railway operations.

At Romero Polo, we are proud to have delivered this project, which contributes to the modernization of Catalonia’s railway infrastructure and reinforces our commitment to safety, mobility, and regional development.
