The hydrographic network is part of the Tagus basin, the main watercourses being the rivers Ambroz, Alagón, Hurdano and Río de los Ángeles. This network is characterised by its narrowing in the mountainous areas, which gives rise to the presence of excellent bathing areas. The area is also home to several reservoirs, with the Gabriel y Galán reservoir standing out.

The final aim of this Territorial Plan is to adapt the urban planning to the current LOTUS regulations.

To this end, the following aspects of the area have been studied in detail:

  • Analysis of the territorial structure.

  • The current land cover.

  • Its environmental and heritage values.

  • The state of the current planning.

New developments are proposed for new needs, heritage protection and the incorporation of sustainability criteria and with a gender perspective, as well as the development of strategic actions. All of this establishing a simplified regulatory framework.
