A Portuguese railway company AVAN signed a contract with Infraestruturas de Portugal to operate the TGV in Gaia, but the station location was chosen at Santo Oviedo instead of the planned Santo Oviedo, with a connection to two metro lines. The article notes that the station was moved, causing delays and complaints from the public. The evidence indicates the contract was signed in 2026, but the specific date of the move is not provided. The article does not mention any specific individuals or quotes, only the general outcome of the station relocation.
