Land Squandering in the Spanish Medium Sized Cities: The Case of Toledo

Abstract: A process of land squandering began in Spain in the mid 1990s until the great crisis of 2008. The intensive production of urban land affected the Spanish medium-sized towns. They were characterized by their compact nature and then they underwent an intense diffuse urbanization. However, in some cases there had been previous examples of urban sprawl.

“…In China's regional economic competition, local governments have attracted investment with low or even free industrial land transfers and negative land prices-subsidies for infrastructure facilities, which some scholars have called "attracting investment with land" or "seeking development with land" [27][28][29]. As a result, the price of industrial land transfer is very low nationwide, and the waste of industrial land use is very serious [30,31]. In order to curb corruption in the field of land transfer, reduce the loss of related state-owned assets and protect cultivated land, promote the intensive use of land, and also to cooperate with the reform of the economic system, the central government has promoted further market-oriented reform of land transfer.…”

Como referencia, Toledo cuenta con una tasa de crecimiento del 66,5% (Sánchez y Escudero, 2019). En definitiva, la corona del área urbana ha conocido un impresionante crecimiento urbanístico que aún podría haber sido mayor si no fuese por la paralización de la Gran Recesión.…”

“…El Ensanche no forma un conjunto planificado único. Por el contrario, resulta de la suma de distintos sectores situados en la parte norte de Toledo, construidos en un largo proceso temporal y con una clara dispersión y fragmentación (Sánchez y Escudero, 2019). Su colmatación continúa hasta el presente mediante planes parciales como el PAU Unidad Ronda de Buenavista de 2021, que propiciará la construcción de 60 nuevas viviendas en un solar libre del barrio de Buenavista.…”
