Port of Tarragona · petrochemical corridor · Catalan freight
Transvolando coordinates road freight from Tarragona across Spain, the UK and the rest of Europe. Tarragona is home to Spain’s largest petrochemical cluster (Repsol, Dow, Basf, Covestro) and the Port of Tarragona, a major Mediterranean port for petroleum, chemicals and grain. The AP-7 motorway connects it to Barcelona, France and Europe; the AP-2 runs inland to Zaragoza and the PLAZA logistics platform.
