W: So, possible locations for the plant. First, the basic facilities for the region are generally very good. At least between the three main cities, Bilbao, Victoria in the south and San Sebastián. There is now a fast train link to the south of France and to the rest of Spain. Are there improvements affect Bilbao, principally? But the whole region benefits. First, the port area has been completely modernized and relocated. And the airport has also been extended. So the basic facilities are good.
M: Right. So, are we in a position to choose one of these cities'?
W: Well, let's not rush into anything. I think it would be a bad idea to assume we're going to choose a city. It might be better to think about one of the smaller towns.
M: Smaller places. Yes. So, should we get details on the possible places'?
W: Yes. We could do that. But we need, I think, first, to check a few things. For example, tax benefits, grants, and anything like that, for locating to a smaller place, not one of the main cities, then we can make a better decision.
M: Yes, I agree. You've talked about the improved transport links in Bilbao. What about the links to the smaller towns? If it's a mountainous or hilly region, it could take an hour or more for a track to reach a main road. So I think we need to look specifically at the train and road links for smaller towns.
W: Yes. You're right. Road and rail and the financial position.
