C-32 is a primary highway in Catalonia, Spain. It was created in 2004 by merging three sections of existing autopistas and autovías. This re-organisation was part of a renaming of primary highways managed by the Generalitat de Catalunya. According to this new denomination, the first number (C-32) indicates that is a southwest-northeast highway (parallel to the Mediterranean Sea coastline), while the second number (C-32) indicates that is the second-closest to the Mediterranean Sea.
The Barcelona-Mataró's section of the former A-19 (now renamed to C-31 and C-32) was the first autopista ever in Spain (1969).

Transcription
Southern section (El Vendrell-Sant Boi de Llobregat)
The C-32's southern section, also known as Autopista de Pau Casals (officially), named in honor of the famous cellist Pablo Casals, who is known as Pau Casals in Catalan, or non-officially Túnels del Garraf after the tunnels through the Garraf Massif, was previously named A-16
It connects several relevant towns such as Vilanova i la Geltrú, Sitges and Castelldefels, as well as it passes close to the Barcelona-El Prat Airport.
Middle section (Sant Boi de Llobregat-Montgat)
The middle section should correspond to the actual autovía B-20, also known as Ronda de Dalt, which is a part of the Barcelona's Rondes (ring road). This section has not been renamed yet because it is managed by the Spanish government.
Northern section (Montgat-Tordera)
The northern section is a part of the former autopista A-19
