It failed to cause any major mobility problems within the precinct because it happened at a quiet time of day for Mercabarna. Even still, cars were lined up at the Secondary Gate exit and the bus service ground to a halt. Thinking ahead, Mercabarna management arranged for salt to be scattered over all the ramps of the Central Fruit and Vegetable Market to make it easier for the forklift trucks to get around.
The storm had no major repercussions on product distribution either, because the central markets were well-stocked on the day of the storm and the following days.
