New Rail Link to Calvià: Opportunity or Traffic Illusion?

Answer

What should Mallorca travellers know about park-and-ride if the Calvià rail line is built?

Park-and-ride facilities could make the train easier to use by letting drivers leave their cars at the edge of the urban area and continue by rail. That only works if the sites are well placed, easy to reach, and linked to frequent services. Without that setup, many people may still choose to drive all the way.
