The Construction of a Train That Will Link Porto Alegre to Gramado Just Took an Important Step. The State Attorney General’s Office (PGE) Issued a Favorable Opinion on the Project, Indicating That the Gaucho Government is in Agreement With the Initiative. With This, the Dream of Connecting the Capital to the Heart of the Serra Gaucha by Rail is Starting to Become a Reality.

The PGE’s approval is a significant milestone for the project’s viability, as it indicates that there are no legal impediments to its implementation. This positive signal paves the way for the train’s construction to advance to the next stages, including the formalization of the contract and the initiation of the necessary bureaucratic processes.

Investment and Expectation for the Start of Construction

The project for the construction of a train that will cover the route between Porto Alegre and Gramado will be funded through a private investment of approximately R$ 3 billion. The government of Rio Grande do Sul expects the adhesion contract to be signed this year, allowing the environmental licensing phase to begin.

The forecast is for construction to start in 2028 and that, after a period of three years, the train will be operating on the route, providing a modern and efficient transportation alternative for tourists and residents of the region.

Necessary Licenses and Environmental Studies

The construction works of a train between Porto Alegre and Gramado are scheduled to start in 2028. The estimate is that the project will be completed in three years, with the train operating on the route by 2031.

After the contract is signed, Sultrens Transportes Ferroviários, the company responsible for the project, will need to apply for a preliminary license from the State Department of the Environment. Furthermore, it will be necessary to develop the Environmental Impact Study (EIA) and the Environmental Impact Report (RIMA), essential documents to ensure that the train’s construction meets environmental requirements and does not cause significant negative impacts in the region.

Responsible Companies for the Construction

The Sultrens project has been under development for two years and involves the participation of three specialized companies in the sector:

RG2E Engenharia Consultiva: Responsible for the technical development of the project, with experience in subways and passenger railways.
STE Engenharia: Works in the infrastructure area, ensuring the structural viability of the railroad.
BF Capital: Responsible for attracting investors to enable the financing of the construction.

The three companies have joined efforts to create Sultrens, a special purpose company that leads the initiative and seeks to turn this ambitious project into reality.

China has been trying for 13 years to build a railway in the Gobi Desert to reach Mongolia, and there are still 20 kilometers left that no one can finish due to a problem that seems impossible to solve.

At just 14 years old, a boy creates a system without energy, using steel pipes buried in the ground, that irrigates seedlings with moisture from the air, to combat the water scarcity threatening reforestation in northern China.

Where there was only sand and wind at 40 degrees, China built a megacity of 500,000 inhabitants with farms, wineries, and universities in the middle of the desert using melted glacier water from hundreds of kilometers away.

For 45 years, Spain and Morocco have been trying to connect Europe to Africa through a project of just 14 kilometers in the Strait of Gibraltar, and an active tectonic fault on the seabed continues to make the project nearly impossible.

Soil treatment with cyanobacteria transforms desert sand into fertile land in less than a year and could change the fight against desertification worldwide.

In the middle of the sea, these enormous concrete and steel structures, built by the British Navy to protect strategic maritime routes, look like they came straight out of a Star Wars movie.

The new Chinese brand that arrived in Brazil with three hybrid SUVs is already talking about its own factory, more than 100 stores, and one launch per year to try to fully win over Brazilian consumers.

5 cheapest used cars than a Honda CG 160 Titan 0 km, with options starting at R$ 13,000 for those who want to trade their motorcycle for a car and escape the rain, sun, and risks of riding.

In Mexico, a 3,000-year-old Maya site with the dimensions of an entire city may have been built as a colossal map of the cosmos, created to represent the order of the universe and reveal how this people organized space, time, and rituals.

Japan wants to build a solar ring of 10,900 kilometers on the Moon to continuously send energy to Earth.

For years, no one could cross a neighborhood in Tokyo because of the tracks, but an impressive solution changed mobility and completely transformed the local routine.
