[00:00:04] ones [00:00:17] A few hours before the eclipse, the Catalan [00:00:18] We never tire of telling you that to enjoy traffic service recommends avoiding the [00:00:21] AP7, travelling with time, using public transport if [00:00:25] possible. The exits from the Ebro lands will be able to open [00:00:28] and close. Traffic [00:00:31] l'Ebre, Camp de Tarragona, as asks that no one saturate the shoulders to see the [00:00:33] moment. [00:00:36] Queues to catch the buses today covering the railway cut [00:00:40] between Gràcia and Sarrià. The interruption of the service to improve the tracks [00:00:43] will last until August [00:00:45] 23rd. [00:00:48] train have to leave the Also in Barcelona, the city council will install a hundred surveillance [00:00:51] cameras before the end of the year. They want to improve security [00:00:55] beyond the busiest points such as Parc de la [00:00:58] it was in the schoolyard that Pegaso. [00:01:00] City councils, companies and entities of La Noguera reject the creation of [00:01:04] the new Montsec natural park promoted by the Generalitat. [00:01:07] They believe that the regulations to protect this area will harm the [00:01:11] tourist and economic activity of the [00:01:13] area. [00:01:16] The eclipse again attracts photographers [00:01:19] from all over the world. The renowned scientific photojournalist [00:01:22] and collaborator of National Geographic, Babak Tafreshi, [00:01:25] chose Tarragona to capture the [00:01:28] moment. [00:01:36] was not affected, and He won't be the only one; the so-called Catalan eclipse hunters are also mobilized. Some have [00:01:40] planned to see it from a plane in mid-flight. Let's start with that. [00:01:49] we don't think they will go beyond and the Ebro lands [00:01:54] Prepare lenses and filters with which he will immortalize the total [00:01:58] solar eclipse and go to Aragon, a short journey for [00:02:02] this astrophotographer who has already traveled all over the world since his [00:02:06] where they plan to observe first experience in Munich in 1999, and when you see [00:02:09] the first one you see that it is an [00:02:12] commission and are awaiting opportunity to travel, it is an opportunity to enjoy [00:02:16] coast, and the forecast for astrophotography and they [00:02:17] visibility. These are all those in started doing reports and they haven't stopped [00:02:20] until now. Sara also debuted then, now [00:02:23] she has seen a dozen, this time it will be even more [00:02:27] bother, areas of special, she will go to her family home in Peñar de San [00:02:30] Esteban, in Soria, equipped with a thousand glasses for [00:02:33] everyone. I've been waiting for this moment for 27 years, look, it makes me [00:02:37] shiver because, [00:02:39] being able to share this moment with everyone, that finally everyone can see it, not because you like it and [00:02:43] have traveled, after so much time that it falls on my house, my mother's [00:02:47] birthplace is like an exceptional [00:02:50] we finish with an appetizer of thing. She has broadcast the phenomenon live from Uganda, [00:02:54] seen from Indonesia, the United States or Easter Island. Her experience, however, contrasts with [00:02:58] that of Audal, who despite her. [00:03:03] I don't think so until I'm there and see it, of course, I know perfectly [00:03:06] rationally what this experience will consist [00:03:10] of, but there is a magic that escapes me. Juan [00:03:13] Carlos is also fully immersed in the preparations, with his [00:03:17] son they will experience the eclipse from a plane, a scientific [00:03:20] flight from Iberia from where they will photograph the [00:03:23] unique moment with the challenges it entails. Of course, we have advantages for being in [00:03:27] the air, such as speed control, such as having [00:03:31] perfect conditions, but it has disadvantages because it is on an unstable [00:03:34] and mobile platform. What does this mean? Well, of course, you are, so to speak, [00:03:38] limited by what the window is, these [00:03:41] observation zones [00:03:43] city council for the observation and then also by what the possible turbulences that we may [00:03:47] encounter. To capture the key seconds, technique and the [00:03:50] indicated devices are needed, otherwise, it is best to put the [00:03:54] camera and mobile aside and live it [00:03:56] fully. That's it, that's it. Good afternoon. [00:04:00] How are you? There are only a few hours left, we are getting closer and closer to this [00:04:03] unique experience, as they explain to us, we heard them now, those [00:04:07] who have already experienced one in other places on the planet, with such [00:04:10] anticipation, the country's mobility will also be [00:04:14] put to the test. Traffic has activated a special device for tomorrow. [00:04:18] The main recommendation is clear: avoid taking the AP7 as much as [00:04:22] possible. Take note if you are among those who plan [00:04:25] to travel. [00:04:27] The eclipse is exceptional and the problems that it can [00:04:30] generate are also foreseen by traffic. A very significant [00:04:34] increase in travel is expected, especially from north to south [00:04:37] towards the main eclipse observation areas. The AP7, which crosses the country, [00:04:41] will be the main mobility axis, so traffic recommends avoiding [00:04:45] it as much as possible. As extraordinary measures, from 5 [00:04:49] in the afternoon until midnight, the passage of trucks and buses [00:04:52] in the southbound direction will be prohibited between Martorell and [00:04:56] Ulldecona. In the northbound direction, they will be able to circulate, but only [00:05:00] in the right lane and at 100 km/h. The exits of the Ebro lands [00:05:04] can be opened and closed depending on traffic. On the other hand, information, [00:05:08] the main stage of the patrolling by the Mossos and the preparations to enjoy the crane service will be reinforced. [00:05:11] For trips to most of the western regions, it is recommended to use [00:05:15] the Eix Transversal or the A2 motorway. If we go to [00:05:18] Les Borges Blanques, Valls or Prades, the AP2. And for mobility [00:05:22] between the Camp de Tarragona and the Terres de l'Ebre, the A7 and the [00:05:26] N-340. The Ebro Delta has a fragile point, which is Emposta. [00:05:29] Here we will have traffic regulation from both the Mossos d'Esquadra and us [00:05:33] to try to ensure that all the people coming from the northern [00:05:37] part of the Delta, as well as from the southern part of the Delta, can take [00:05:41] either the National 340 or the AP7 motorway [00:05:44] there at Emposta and, above all, avoid – and I want this to be [00:05:47] clear – avoid entering Emposta and congesting [00:05:50] Emposta. The Terres de l'Ebre are precisely one of the points where [00:05:54] the most people are expected. A couple of local roads will be one-way [00:05:57] and with a circular route. From La Ràpita, it will only be allowed to go [00:06:01] to El Trabucador and return via the [00:06:03] Amposta road. [00:06:07] Traffic recommends, if possible, walking or prioritizing [00:06:11] the use of public transport, which has been reinforced. But if we [00:06:15] have to take the car, it advises us to make sure it is in [00:06:18] good condition to avoid breakdowns that could [00:06:22] further congest the roads. Also, before leaving, drivers are [00:06:25] asked to plan their journey well, trying to be in the [00:06:29] destination area at the latest before noon. On the [00:06:33] road, the request is not to follow navigators to the [00:06:36] letter because some routes may be [00:06:39] altered. Instead, you must be aware of the [00:06:43] indications on the information panels and the orders of the security forces. [00:06:47] If the eclipse catches us while driving, we must not stop [00:06:50] on any shoulder to observe it, and once it has ended, [00:06:53] we must stagger the return so as not to cause a collapse right after the [00:06:57] phenomenon. [00:07:00] We insist that it is very important not to park on the [00:07:03] shoulders or in areas that are not specially equipped. What we have to do [00:07:07] is responsible driving with the awareness that there are specially [00:07:11] equipped parking lots. The aim is not to obstruct traffic so that [00:07:15] everyone can reach the place [00:07:18] the eclipse. The observation points recommended by the [00:07:21] Generalitat will also be reinforced, as they are safe [00:07:24] spaces with enabled, wide accesses and good [00:07:29] the strip, on the path that is called the totality, where it will be night [00:07:33] because the eclipse will be total. In the regions of Tarragona, let's review [00:07:37] them a bit, there are eight in all these localities, four on the [00:07:40] coast, four inland. Tarragona, the city, for example, [00:07:44] has prepared several spaces, six spaces, such as Port Marina [00:07:47] Tarraco, Bonavista or Parc del Francolí. Also keep in mind that there are [00:07:51] spaces, for example in Reus or Cambrils, where a [00:07:55] prior reservation is needed and the capacity is already full, as for example, the [00:07:58] Festa Park, the capital of Baix Camp. In the [00:08:02] Terres de l'Ebre, where, as we said before, a lot of [00:08:05] mobility is expected, there are up to six prepared spaces in all these [00:08:08] towns and of all of them we highlight Alcanar, further south, or [00:08:12] where the eclipse will be seen for 1 minute and 37 seconds, it is where [00:08:16] it will last the longest. There they have prepared for example spaces in Plaça de la Lluna [00:08:20] or the most singular, the Mirador del Sol. If we go to [00:08:23] the western lands, to the regions of Lleida, the Generalitat [00:08:27] recommends Les Borges Blanques and the capital of Segrià, [00:08:30] La Seu Vella and Els Magraners, this morning there was already a lot of [00:08:34] movement. workshop to teach how to [00:08:38] observe the solar eclipse, an initiative still necessary [00:08:41] for these. [00:08:49] binoculars and obviously it can't be done. The workshop is held at La Seu Vella, [00:08:53] one of the two spaces enabled by the [00:08:56] of the eclipse and this morning the first [00:08:59] tourists [00:09:01] were already seen there. [00:09:13] where you will have to arrive on foot, the 1500 free tickets have been [00:09:17] sold out for a long time, as well as the 10,000 for the esplanade enabled in the [00:09:21] Magraners neighborhood with 4,000 parking spaces. We will have to see what [00:09:24] happens with the people who decide to come to Lleida at the last minute. They will not be able to [00:09:28] access La Seu Vella, but the Magraners area, which is wider, will [00:09:32] have this margin to be able to [00:09:35] accommodate more people, but obviously, our [00:09:39] recommendation to have it as controlled as possible is that if they [00:09:42] don't have a ticket, they shouldn't go to these points. Lleida is the largest [00:09:46] city in Catalonia where the eclipse can be observed with 100% [00:09:50] visibility. For this reason, many visitors are expected here in the capital [00:09:54] of Segrià tomorrow, and the city council and also the Generalitat want to guarantee [00:09:57] safety and mobility. Signs [00:10:00] have been put up to reach the eclipse viewpoints, public transport will be reinforced, [00:10:04] 200 people have been mobilized, including police, health workers and [00:10:08] volunteers. Oriol Vidal Aixala TV3, [00:10:10] Lleida. [00:10:13] Well, Tarragona is also finalizing [00:10:16] eclipse. At Port Marina Tarracos, [00:10:20] festival organized by the city council is being installed. [00:10:23] Concerts, performances, Castells, shows or outreach [00:10:27] activities will be held. In the city, there will be, as we said before, [00:10:30] six more observation points for more than 53,000 people. The official [00:10:34] events begin this evening, with the activation of the eclipse countdown [00:10:37] that will take place from the Roman [00:10:39] amphitheater. [00:10:43] the eclipse it is essential to use approved glasses. [00:10:47] Health will reinforce the emergency services, especially [00:10:50] those health areas where it will be seen in its [00:10:53] totality, Lleida, Terres de [00:10:56] we say, where the eclipse will be seen 100%. [00:11:00] And the consequences of looking at an [00:11:09] eclipse without protection can last a lifetime. [00:11:13] Isabel suffered a retinal [00:11:17] injury from an eclipse when she was only five years old. She remembers [00:11:23] at that time they distributed smoked glasses and that she [00:11:27] looked without protection, it was quite covered, but there was a whole strip [00:11:30] like a moon of light and I remember I looked at it, yes, [00:11:34] yes, for a while, maybe 15, 20 seconds or [00:11:37] so, it's quite a lot, at that moment I didn't feel anything because I didn't [00:11:41] feel any pain, absolutely nothing, it was a month [00:11:45] later when she started to notice vision problems in her right eye, she [00:11:49] was playing, she was with a girl and playing and so on, I [00:11:52] say: hey, do you see little lights? I see, I see lights, oh no, [00:11:56] well I don't, I do, oh, I covered my left eye, which fortunately [00:12:01] in my right eye I had a light, a light like a [00:12:05] spot, then I told my parents, they took me to the [00:12:09] Barraquer clinic and yes, yes, immediately my [00:12:12] retina was burned by the eclipse that happened, a [00:12:16] spot that she has for life, I see a blind spot, [00:12:20] that is, I focus, if I cover [00:12:22] my left eye and I want to see [00:12:26] the tip of your nose, I don't see it, it disappears, if I cover [00:12:29] this I can't read, it would take me an hour to read [00:12:33] half a page, if it had happened to both eyes I couldn't live a [00:12:37] normal life, that's why she believes it's important to educate [00:12:41] about the risks of the eclipse, especially to protect the little ones. [00:13:20] Fire is fire, avoiding a catastrophe is in your [00:13:24] hands. If you see smoke or fire, call 112. Generalitat de [00:13:27] Catalunya, the government of all.

[00:15:14] a flood of people, this was the image outside the Gràcia [00:15:18] railway station during rush hour and when users saw [00:15:22] it, the first thing I thought was I'm walking away. They were freaking [00:15:25] out and everyone, of course, was arriving late for work. From today they have to queue [00:15:29] to catch one of the buses that provides alternative transport service [00:15:33] between the Gràcia and Sarrià railway [00:15:36] stations, as this section of the route is disabled for [00:15:40] works. This also affects the Barcelona-Vallès lines. [00:15:44] Later, some tensions arose. [00:15:47] Some [00:15:51] people are late for [00:15:52] work. [00:16:01] It has already normalized, but many didn't know there were works or where they [00:16:05] had to go. They were in a fog. [00:16:17] to take the bus and there is a queue that you can already see in the image [00:16:21] at Sarrià station repeats that all users arriving by [00:16:26] station, queue, get on the bus and head [00:16:30] to Gràcia. This until August 23rd. From [00:16:33] Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat they assure that it was a [00:16:36] problem because today they could not have all the contracted buses [00:16:40] to guarantee the service first thing in the morning. [00:16:43] Judit Vallafrigola, TV3, [00:16:46] Barcelona. We are not moving from the city of Barcelona because [00:16:50] before the end of the year, a hundred video surveillance cameras [00:16:53] will be installed, which will add to the almost 200 already [00:16:57] there. They will be placed at all these points: the Olympic Ring, [00:17:01] El Born, Els Encants, Parc de la Pegaso and the Bunkers del Carmel. [00:17:05] How the city council justifies it, he explains to us. [00:17:09] the city council's strategy in installing new video surveillance cameras [00:17:13] not only focuses on highly frequented tourist spots [00:17:17] where there is a concentration of crime. It also wants to focus [00:17:21] on neighborhoods like here, in Parc de la Pegaso in [00:17:24] La Sagrera, where problems of incivility have occurred. In [00:17:27] early July, a 15-year-old boy was shot and killed, [00:17:31] although the decision to install 19 video surveillance cameras [00:17:35] here was prior to this serious event. Later, [00:17:38] it is planned to install them in other places or neighborhoods such as Plaça [00:17:42] Roja and Parc de la Guineueta, which have already received a favorable [00:17:45] report from the video surveillance [00:17:49] final approval. Currently, in Barcelona, [00:17:52] 186 video surveillance cameras are operating and [00:17:56] it is expected to gradually expand them to all [00:18:00] districts until reaching 660 by [00:18:03] 2027. [00:18:07] imagine the elements of security with [00:18:10] the elements also of respect for the minimal elements of people's privacy [00:18:14] and we have said that for the moment there is no plan for artificial [00:18:17] intelligence, so we have the viewing mechanisms that are already well [00:18:21] known, which are the ones we have already tested and which are put into operation and yes, I have already [00:18:25] said that there would be no facial [00:18:28] recognition. [00:18:30] Meanwhile, in Altafulla, regarding the radar that was installed in January at [00:18:34] the entrance of the town, the city council explained that in the first month of [00:18:38] operation, the system detected almost 1600 vehicles [00:18:41] that exceeded the limit of 30 km per hour, while last [00:18:45] month in the middle of summer, when the population multiplied, more than [00:18:49] 87,000 vehicles passed through the control point, [00:18:52] only 133 were sanctioned. The [00:18:55] council believes that road safety in the [00:18:58] municipality has been [00:19:00] improved. [00:19:03] we have always defended that it was a measure for a safety [00:19:06] measure. Right here where we are right now, we caught vehicles not [00:19:09] at 70, not at 80 but at 92 km per [00:19:13] hour, with the July data there is no car that goes over [00:19:17] 65 km per hour, which was our goal, to drastically [00:19:20] reduce a point where we had had some incidents, [00:19:23] especially with vehicles overtaking [00:19:26] pedestrians. [00:19:34] active tourism companies, paragliding school, [00:19:38] farmers, ranchers, various sectors of Montsec are against the [00:19:42] future natural park promoted by the Generalitat. They fear that their [00:19:45] activities in this area, which they have been doing for decades, will be [00:19:48] limited. [00:19:51] The Congost de Mont-rebei and active tourism companies fear that the future [00:19:55] Montsec Natural Park will lead to new restrictions. [00:19:58] Àger is a very touristy town, it is a town that lives from farming and [00:20:02] livestock, but also a lot from tourism, everyone, directly or indirectly. So [00:20:06] I think it is important that this continues to be the case, what we don't need is a [00:20:10] natural park to come and legislate even more and make everything even more [00:20:13] cumbersome to do. The paragliding companies have the same [00:20:17] concern. They warn that if the future park ends up incorporating [00:20:21] regulations similar to those of other natural parks in Catalonia, [00:20:24] they would have to notify activities 15 days in advance and [00:20:28] flights near protected bird nests or during the breeding [00:20:32] season would be limited. This would mean the end [00:20:35] of free flight in the Montsec, all the people who come to climb, all the people who [00:20:39] come to do via ferratas, if we look at the rest of the world or if we look at neighboring [00:20:43] France, if we look at the Alps, these [00:20:46] types of restrictions do not exist. For four [00:20:50] generations, Jordi Rosell's family has grazed sheep in [00:20:53] Montsec. He defends that over the years it has been preserved thanks to the people who [00:20:57] live and work there. The Montsec, I believe, is in excellent [00:21:00] health and that we ourselves are the best [00:21:04] managers, the people of the territory. What saddens me is that people from outside come [00:21:07] to tell us what we have to do in Montsec. As for the municipalities, Àger plans to hold a [00:21:11] citizen consultation and defend its result. Others like [00:21:15] Camarasa or Vilanova de Meià publicly express their [00:21:18] rejection. We say that it is a fact that affects the [00:21:22] territory not now but for a long time [00:21:25] and it is the people who live here who have to [00:21:28] decide from minute 0 that we are clear that it does not interest [00:21:32] us because then if you enter you cannot leave and it is a [00:21:36] mortgage that you leave on the territory that can be for life. Carla Vilaseca [00:21:40] Vilara Sau TV3 Vilanova de [00:21:42] Meià. [00:21:48] We started talking about the eclipse. We end up talking about the same thing, [00:21:51] photography will be a way to project the city of [00:21:55] Tarragona to the world during this moment, during the eclipse with [00:21:59] the photographer and collaborator of National Geographic Babak [00:22:03] Tafreshi has chosen the city to capture this [00:22:06] phenomenon with some of its monuments as [00:22:09] protagonists. Astrophotographer Babak [00:22:13] Tafreshi has chosen Tarragona to photograph the solar eclipse for [00:22:17] National Geographic magazine. Of all the [00:22:20] possible locations, he has chosen that of his Tarragona [00:22:23] friend and scientific popularizer Joan Antón Català. The [00:22:27] project traces cities, World Heritage [00:22:30] sites.

[00:22:51] He is one of the most important astrophotographers and for 10 years he [00:22:55] documented solar eclipses around the world for a television [00:22:59] series. This represents a challenge for him [00:23:02] due to its duration and the position of the sun. The eclipse is [00:23:06] only one minute in Tarragona, so that [00:23:08] means you cannot make any mistake, you have [00:23:12] to make the shot right, if the weather [00:23:14] cooperates, settings and everything needs to be [00:23:18] right, and I'm using...
