…residents of La Salut neighbourhood in Barcelona are celebrating a move to wipe themselves off the map.
For years, residents had complained that they could not get home because the number 116 bus was always crammed with tourists visiting Antoni Gaudí’s Park Güell. The park is the city’s second most popular attraction after the Sagrada Familia basilica.
Now they have the bus to themselves after the city council arranged to have the route removed from Google and Apple maps.
“We laughed at the idea at first,” said César Sánchez, a local activist. “But we’re amazed that the measure has been so effective.”
