Abstract

This article reports on a case study research project that examines the planning and development of a port-side industrial zone in the Franco era in Santander, Spain. The case study illustrates some key features of central and local authority intervention in the area, which may be of value and interest to planners and politicians working in similar politico-administrative environments. The study concludes that, as regards plan implementation, the development of the Port Service Area involved contravention of the statutory approved urban plan for the area and irregularities in planning procedure. Despite these shortcomings, the development of the Port Service Area has been an economic and strategic success.
