The railway line divided Salou into two halves, creating a physical and social barrier in the heart of the town. Following the removal of the railway tracks, Salou faces the greatest urban transformation opportunity in its recent history: the Civic Axis.
A small book titled Salou, a Sea of Culture has been the winning proposal of the SouvenirArt contest, organized for the first time by the Salou-Costa Daurada Tourism Innovation and Research Chair, with the collaboration of the Tarragona Provincial Council and the Salou Town Council. The author of the new souvenir is Muntsa Sucarrats, from Olesa de Montserrat, a graphic designer and art director.
