About

The Ministerio de Transportes y Movilidad Sostenible (Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility) is the Spanish government body responsible for transportation infrastructure and policy. Recent news highlights its activity in several key areas. Road safety is a major concern, with the Ministry using data to identify and address the most dangerous roads, such as sections of the N-330. Rising fuel costs are impacting the transport sector, prompting the Ministry to meet with transport representatives to find solutions. The Ministry is also working with regional governments, such as the Basque Country, to establish co-management structures for airports. Significant investment is planned for infrastructure improvements, including a €540.8 million project to upgrade the A-3 highway in Madrid and €94.5 million for electric vehicle charging stations. Emergency repairs are also underway on Madrid's road network following damage from recent storms, and repairs are being done on the AVE high speed rail line to Malaga. These actions demonstrate the Ministry's ongoing efforts to improve transport infrastructure, address economic challenges in the sector, and promote sustainable mobility.
