Presas asks Heritage whether there is a project to widen the road next to the Vilar Castro

Antonio Presas questions the legality of the works at the Castro de Vilar, denouncing that the widening of the path could damage the heritage without the appropriate permits. The researcher demands clarity regarding the authorization and archaeological oversight, suspecting that the administration is acting negligently in the face of impacts on a protected cultural asset. Meanwhile, local authorities defend that they only carried out cleaning work and assert that they have all the necessary authorizations, including archaeological oversight, for the bridge’s restoration. This discrepancy creates tension between the perceived risk to heritage and the official narrative of regulatory compliance in the management of the historic environment. This case is relevant to open data because it highlights the need for transparency in public permits. Access to the records of archaeological monitoring and authorization documents would enable citizens and experts to audit heritage protection, fostering accountability through verifiable open data.
