Resumen
OBREGON-BIOSCA, Saúl Antonio. Comparative study of the impact in the socioeconomic development of two motorways: Eix Transversal de Catalunya, Spain, and MEX120, Mexico. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2010, vol.10, n.32, pp.1-47. ISSN 2448-6183.
Motorways are key to the economic and social development in the territory of any country. Hence, it is important to analyse and compare how motorways provide opportunities for economic and social transformation. This analysis considers two areas with some similarities, but also with evident social differences. To this end, we have selected two motorways in two different countries in order to observe the short-term effect that each of them has on several socio-economic variables. We have chosen on the one hand the Eix Transversal de Catalunya (Spain) and on the other hand the MEX120 motorway (Mexico). The results show that patterns in the development induced by both motorways are very similar and the main difference is in the level of economic development in each of the territories.
