Geography
Spanish term or phrase: eje fluvial
This word "eje" drives me crazy sometimes!

"Las Comarcas no sólo han acogido la expansión de la población de las comarcas barcelonesas, sino que han asumiendo la descentralización de las actividades productivas y han sido vinculadas económicamente con la región metropolitana en la doble condición de mercado y de proveedor. Un ejemplo la industrialización de los ejes fluviales, a mediados del siglo XIX, con fábricas textiles y colonias industriales que respondió a una descentralización de la industria para disminuir costes de producción, el aprovechamiento de la energía fluvial y un entorno social menos conflictivo."

Many thanks for any help

  -> Thanks Constantinos. I should add that the plural is "axes" and it is necessary to consider that the rivers in question provided energy for mills and factories but were not, generally, navigable.
