Governors of RJ and ES Established Partnership at Event Organized by Prumo at Porto do Açu for Rail Connection Between the States.

[supsystic-social-sharing id=’1′]The Porto do Açu is increasingly establishing itself as a giant in many segments of the industry. At an event held yesterday (8), organized by Prumo Logística, the port administrator, the governors of Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo, Pezão and Hatung respectively, met to establish a partnership for the construction of the “rail corridor.” The intention of this union is to boost the economy and job generation in both regions.

During the celebration, the two governors signed a letter that will be sent to the current president of the republic, Temer, emphasizing how important it is to construct this rail line. Other entities present at this event also signed this letter, including: Firjan, FINDES, the Commercial Association of Rio de Janeiro, and Espírito Santo in Action, among several others. By November 14th, the letter will be in the president’s hands at a meeting scheduled for that day.

We will fight together for this project. We are talking about a railway that will unite the potential of both states and will be a source of development, with job and income generation,” exclaimed Pezão!

José Magela, supreme director of Prumo Logística, also emphasized that the implementation of this track will boost not only isolated regions and municipalities but has a huge potential to reach the global market, considering that Porto do Açu is the largest private port venture in the country.

They call this project the “Southeast Port Province,” which will facilitate cargo logistics more easily throughout the Southeast and Midwest of Brazil, for example: petrochemicals, iron ore, grains, and steel, among many other inputs.

Technical Specifications

The project is already well advanced, and according to calculations, it will have 577 km, with wide and mixed gauges. Prumo also states that approximately 150 km of the railway bed that already exists on site will be reused. To carry out this project, R$ 5.5 billion will be invested for this section.
