WRITTEN QUESTION No. 1876/96 by Florus WIJSENBEEK to the Commission. Construction of an expressway in Portugal  


Official Journal C 385 , 19/12/1996 P. 0053 





WRITTEN QUESTION E-1876/96 by Florus Wijsenbeek (ELDR) to the Commission (11 July 1996)Subject: Construction of an expressway in PortugalIs the Commission aware that the regional authorities in the Algarve have complained about the Via do Infante Enriquez constructed with EU aid from Vila Real de Santo António to Lagos in the Algarve in Portugal?Does this road link appear in the continued aid granted in connection with the trans-European networks, and what planning policy has been adopted on it?Does not the Commission consider that, in view of the environmental impact considerations added by the European Parliament by way of amendments, a detailed consultation with the local authorities is first required?Will the Commission see to it that this is done? If so, how, and if not, why not?Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission (26 September 1996)The Honourable Member makes a reference to the Parliament's amendments in the framework for a decision on guidelines for the trans-European development of the trans-European transport network (TEN). He will be aware that the text approved by the conciliation committee refers now to the Directives 85/337/EEC ((OJ L 175, 5.7.1985. )) and 92/43/EEC ((OJ L 206, 22.7.1992. )) and to the proceedings to be followed by the relevant national authorities.The high quality road 'Via do Infante' is from Vila Real de St Antonio in Portugal (Spanish border) to Lagos. The TEN road section of 'Via do Infante' is from Vila Real de St Antonio to Alcantarilha. This section was partially cofinanced by European regional development fund under the Interreg I (1989-1993) operational programme. Since 1993 no further Community money has been invested in this TEN road corridor (IP1-A1) to Alcantarilha. An extensive consultation of local people and authorities concerned was launched five years before the conclusion of the construction works to Alcantarilha.
