This allows you to use the Metro, FGC trains, Renfe Rodalies, and buses (including the e3 express bus) with a single card or mobile app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Zone do I need?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Zone 1: If you are traveling only within Barcelona city center.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zone 2: UAB is in Zone 2. If you are staying in Barcelona and commuting to the campus, or staying in Sabadell\/Terrassa and coming to UAB, you need a 2-Zone ticket.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Recommended Ticket: T-casual (10 Journeys)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The T-casual is usually the best option for conference attendees. It provides 10 journeys at a discounted rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exclusion: Note that the T-casual is <em>not<\/em> valid for the Airport T1\/T2 metro stations (L9 Sud), though it <em>is<\/em> valid for the Airport Renfe train station.<a id=\"_msocom_1\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price: ~\u20ac25.50 for a 2-Zone ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Individual use only: This ticket is unipersonal. It cannot be shared; each person in your party must have their own T-mobilitat card or app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transfers: You can make up to 3 transfers between different modes of transport (e.g., Metro to FGC) within 90 minutes, and it will only count as one journey.<a id=\"_msocom_2\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to buy it?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Station machines: You can buy a cardboard T-mobilitat card (cost is ticket price + \u20ac1 for the card itself) pre-loaded with a T-casual at any Metro, FGC, or Renfe machine. You can find more information <a href=\"https:\/\/t-mobilitat.atm.cat\/web\/t-mobilitat\/fares\/t-casual\">here<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mobile app: You can download the T-mobilitat app (<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=cat.atm.tmobilitat&amp;authuser=2\">Android<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/es\/app\/t-mobilitat\/id1586790838\">iOS<\/a>) to buy and use tickets directly with your phone (requires NFC). This costs \u20ac1 for the \u00abvirtual wallet\u00bb setup. You can find more information <a href=\"https:\/\/t-mobilitat.atm.cat\/web\/t-mobilitat\/mobile\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Single tickets: If you only plan to make one or two trips, you can buy single 2-zone tickets at any station machine. These are more expensive per trip and do not allow transfers between different transport operators.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Important: <strong>Always validate your card or phone at the ticket gates both when entering and exiting FGC and Renfe stations. For buses, you only need to validate when boarding.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving &amp; Parking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Highway: Take the AP-7 (exit \u00abUniversitat Aut\u00f2noma\u00bb) or the C-58 (exit 8).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Parking: Use the Parking de Lletres (P3) or Parking de Psicologia (P4).
