Overview
- The Xunta published the delimitation for the As Saíñas parcel in the DOG on July 8, 2026, triggering formal tramitación of a Proxecto de Interese Autonómico to allow 300 protected dwellings.
- The approved area is 66,300 square metres, down from an earlier 75,000‑metre intention announced in April, and the delimitation may be adjusted during detailed drafting of the PIA.
- The site is crossed north‑south by the As Saíñas stream, which the plan foresees as the central axis for a large river‑park that will serve as the main green space for the scheme.
- The DOG notice opens a one‑month window for public alegaciones and does not authorize building work; it is an early administrative step that enables planning and land distribution for the project.
- The Cangas PIA sits inside the Xunta's Estratexia Galega de Solo Residencial, which aims to unlock land for 25,000 homes and is processing 13 PIAs across 11 municipalities with seven already having initial approval.
