The Tua line was a narrow gauge railway which closely followed the banks of the river and was closed in 2008.[1]

In 2017 the Foz Tua project, which includes a dam built near the mouth of the Tua River (at the confluence with the Douro River), started producing energy, after a long controversial process between Portuguese government and environmental organizations.[2]
