This €280-million project involved the construction of the suburban rail line between Málaga and Fuengirola.

The Los Prados - Airport section runs almost entirely below the surface, crossing the Guadalhorce River and Málaga Airport’s new runway. The precast concrete lining is comprised of concrete rings made up of seven segments, giving a finished tunnel diameter of 9 metres.
