  • Portugal S Breathtaking Silver Coast
    ATLAS PROPERTY PORTUGAL PORTUGAL S BREATHTAKING SILVER COAST T:+351 262 833 500 E: [email protected] W: www.atlaspropertyportugal.com ATLAS PROPERTY PORTUGAL The Silver Coast The Silver Coast of Portugal or Costa de Prata is listed as the No 3 investment region in Channel 4's "A Place In the Sun". The region is incredibly beautiful and possesses not only some of the best beaches in Europe but also picturesque medieval towns and villages where the people are friendly and welcoming. The rolling countryside offers patchwork of vineyards and fruit & market farming whilst the Atlantic coast yields some of the best sea-food in Portugal. With the cost of living a fraction of the Algarve and the opening up of the region by the A8 motorway from Lisbon, the area is becoming a popular investment & holiday destination. Some of the best golf courses in Portugal including true links can be found in this region. It is more favoured by golf enthusiasts than the Algarve as the courses are quieter, cheaper and better. Properties on these resorts have experienced strong capital growth over the last few years and demand continues to be strong. Property outside resorts can still be found at incredible prices e.g. in towns like Lourinha but these are set to rise as the region continues to be discovered by investors and holiday makers across Europe & further afield. With learnings from the Algarve, the Government is carefully controlling the developments in the area to ensure the beauty of the Silver Coast region is maintained. This has slowed down the construction but improved the quality which is good for any new investor.

  • HOW to PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE LAND-USE CHANGES THROUGH DEVELOPING INTERMODAL HIGH-SPEED RAILWAY STATIONS: a Case Study in Portugal
    HOW TO PROMOTE SUSTAINABLE LAND-USE CHANGES THROUGH DEVELOPING INTERMODAL HIGH-SPEED RAILWAY STATIONS: a case study in Portugal Elisabete Arsenio ([email protected]) LNEC I.P. Transportation Department Manuel Tao Universidade do Algarve Faculty of Economics CASEE - Centre for Advanced Studies in Economics and Econometrics Frederico Ferreira Universidade de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro e Instituto Politécnico de Leiria Abstract The literature shows that the development of the railway system in most European countries had a key role both in the evolution of urban systems and regional dynamics. On the other hand, it can be said that railway stations might act as important drivers for promoting sustainable land-use changes, namely if node and place functions can be consistently balanced. The Portuguese High-Speed Railway (HSR) project is as a major strategic transport scheme at both the Iberian and national levels. Its first stage comprises three routes. Of these, one links the Lisbon Metropolitan Area with the Spanish border of Badajoz, being an integral part of the HSR between both Iberian capitals, whereas the other two form the Atlantic Axis, encompassing a system of cities ranging from Lisbon to Porto, and from the latter point to Braga, Vigo and Coruña, concentrating nearly 80% of the whole Portuguese population, and serving an area generating about 90% of Portugal´s GDP. The Lisbon to Porto HSR will be a 292 Km-long standard-gauge (1435mm) corridor, supplementing an historic and congested 146-years old main railway line. The new HSR line is expected to open by 2015, and will feature a limited number of intermediate stations, enabling an easy interchange with other transport modes, namely with the broad-gauge (1668mm) conventional rail network.
