INAGA submits ADIF's works in the Teruel-Sagunto tunnels for public consultation

The Aragonese Institute of Environmental Management (INAGA) has opened for public review the file regarding the prevalence of the public forest domain status resulting from the execution of emergency works in tunnels T6 and T9 of Line 610 - Teruel-Sagunto Bifurcation, at the request of the Railway Infrastructure Administrator (ADIF). The announcement is published in the Official Gazette of Aragon number 185, dated September 23, 2026, within section V of Announcements, with the official reference BOA20260923023. The resolution opens a twenty-day period for interested parties to examine the documentation and submit allegations.

A prevalence file regarding the “Las Lastras” mountain

The processing affects the public forest domain of Public Utility Mountain number 420, named “Las Lastras”, belonging to the City Council of Encinacorba and located within its municipal district, in the province of Zaragoza. The file is identified by number INAGA 500101/45/2025/10328 and is being processed at the request of ADIF, the promoter of the railway works.

The figure of the prevalence of public domain status serves to resolve the concurrence between two public domain assets—the railway infrastructure and the cataloged mountain—when an action of general interest must be executed on protected forest lands. In this case, the origin is the execution of emergency works in two tunnels of the railway connection between Teruel and Sagunto.

Twenty days to examine and allege

The announcement sets a period of twenty days, counted from the publication in the gazette, for interested parties to:

• Examine the documentation at the INAGA offices in Zaragoza, Ranillas Avenue, number 3 C, Dinamiza building, 3rd floor, during office hours.
• Consult the file at the electronic address https://www.aragon.es/inaga/informacionpublica.
• Submit the appropriate allegations via electronic means at the same address or in person.

Legal basis and competent body

The public review is submitted in compliance with Legislative Decree 1/2017, of June 20, of the Government of Aragon, which approves the consolidated text of the Forest Law of Aragon, and the current regulations on the common administrative procedure of Public Administrations.

The announcement corresponds to the Department of Environment and Tourism of the Government of Aragon and was signed in Zaragoza on September 11, 2026, by the Head of Technical Area I of INAGA, Nélida García Sanz.

The publication directly affects the residents of Encinacorba and the layout of the Teruel-Sagunto railway line: any person or entity with a legitimate interest may file an objection within the open period, and the objections submitted will influence the resolution regarding the use of the public forest for the infrastructure.
