Guimarães reinforces urban land and housing capacity in PDM revision

Braga TV13 September 2026 at 23:04

The proposal to revise the Municipal Master Plan (PDM) of Guimarães will be considered this Monday, September 14, by the Municipal Executive. This revision comes as a response to the challenges the municipality faces in the areas of housing, economy and mobility.

The document includes a significant reinforcement of urban land and the county's capacity to meet the population's needs. The new version of the PDM provides for an increase of 1,148.06 hectares of urban land, which represents substantial growth compared to the previous version.

The PDM revision is part of a broader context of territorial planning, seeking to ensure that the municipality has adequate conditions to welcome new residents and economic activities. The Municipal Executive will now have the responsibility to analyze and approve this proposal that could define the urban development of Guimarães in the coming years.

Why this matters

The residents of Guimarães will be directly affected by this revision, which may influence the availability of housing, economic zones and transport in the municipality. The Municipal Executive's decision on Monday determines how the territory will be developed in the coming years.
