Abstract: The relationships between the development of the A22 Via do Infante de Sagres highway in the Portuguese region of the Algarve, and the development of a contemporary landscape by using the Cultural Landscape Dynamics Interpretative Model are studied. The model evaluates the kind of development followed by contemporary landscapes based on transportation infrastructures in relation to contemporary cultural landscapes, which according to the theoretical approach of the work are based on the sustainable development principles. The presented model provides guidelines for future transportation infrastructure projects towards the development of contemporary cultural landscapes. In the Portuguese case study, the model is used to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of the contemporary landscape formed after the construction of the A22 highway.
