Ciudad Valdeluz

[edit | edit source]

The construction of a new town within the boundaries of Yebes was approved in September 2002 by the provincial planning commission. The project called Ciudad Valdeluz was intended to take advantage of the new high-speed railway between Madrid and Barcelona. Construction began in 2004,[1] and the first residents arrived in 2006. Before completion of the project it was adversely affected by the Spanish property bubble, which made the properties difficult to sell. The developer Construcciones Reyal S.A. had invested more than 1.1 billion of Euros before the economic bubble exploded.[2] By 2024 the population had reached 5,400. This was less than originally planned.
