Massive Málaga Investment Programme

Each year the Junta de Andalucia provides each of its regional governments with a certain amount of money allocated to the enhancement of transport and infrastructure improvements.

The Málaga government has targeted 2007 as the year in which it will reach its target of ensuring that each village is within 30minutes of a main dual carriageway or motorway. This “nearer” project has been allocated a budget of €49million and is hoped to improve the overall connectivity of the Province.

In addition, a further €72million has been allocated to the city’s underground system, which is undergoing a transformation in the coming years.

A further €8million is also being spent on the western stretch of the coastal train services, which will link Málaga with Marbella.

This total investment of in excess of €100million is in addition to the vast investment being undertaken by the Junta de Andalucia into the new AVE high-speed rail link to Madrid.
