C-32 is a primary highway in Catalonia, Spain. It was created in 2004 by merging three sections of existing autopistas and autovías. This re-organisation was part of a renaming of primary highways managed by the Generalitat de Catalunya. According to this new denomination, the first number (C-32) indicates that is a southwest-northeast highway (parallel to the Mediterranean Sea coastline), while the second number (C-32) indicates that is the second-closest to the Mediterranean Sea.
The C-32's southern section, also known as Autopista de Pau Casals (officially), named in honor of the famous cellist Pablo Casals, who is known as Pau Casals in Catalan, or non-officially Túnels del Garraf after the tunnels through the Garraf Massif, was previously named A-16 before the redenomination. It is a partially tolledautopista which runs parallel to the southern Barcelona's Mediterranean coast. It starts at the intersection with the AP-7, near El Vendrell, and finishes at the intersection with the Barcelona-El Prat Airport access freeway, near Sant Boi de Llobregat.
Middle section (Sant Boi de Llobregat-Montgat)edit
The middle section should correspond to the actual autovíaB-20, also known as Ronda de Dalt, which is a part of the Barcelona's Rondes (ring road). This section has not been renamed yet because it is managed by the Spanish government.
Northern section (Montgat-Tordera)edit
The northern section is a part of the former autopistaA-19,[1] also known as Autopista del Maresme. It begins at the intersection of the middle section (B-20) with the C-31, at Montgat, and finishes at Tordera, from where Blanes can be reached by road. It crosses the comarca of Maresme, connecting relevant towns such as Vilassar de Mar, Mataró, Arenys de Mar, Calella or Malgrat de Mar. An extension of this section from Tordera to Lloret de Mar and Tossa de Mar is a controversial issue which is still in the middle of a discussion process.
