[Barcelona] What child with a crayon designed this airport metro?

https://goo.gl/maps/31mhpgRgmx22

L9S. Brand new. Beautiful stations. Fast elevators that take you to the platforms.

But SLOW, slow, slow, slow. It takes 40 minutes to go 7 miles. That's 10 miles per hour, especially if you factor in the time to go underground and above ground again.

A bicycle is faster. Humans (albeit at the Olympic level) can run faster.

I don't know what political process went into building this shiny slinky toy, but wow...
