The 1970s: great works

In the seventies, which were marked by the direct link to the European network thanks to the automatic change of axel gauge, the company moved its warehouses and general workshops to the new base in El Prat de Llobregat (Barcelona). These were years of great urban infrastructures, of the opening of the Cinturón de Ronda ring road around Barcelona, the first urban Spanish toll motorway, and of the underground networks, amongst other major works.
