The project officially established the route of the railway and its future stations with the aim of providing greater access to development, preventing it from being concentrated solely in urban areas.

According to authorities, the main purpose of the initiative is to promote connectivity and expand opportunities in regions that have historically been marginalized from economic growth processes. The construction of the stations and the railway infrastructure is expected to benefit local communities by facilitating the transportation of people and goods more efficiently and sustainably.

One of the project representatives highlighted: "This railway route will not only be a means of transportation but will also boost the social and economic development of the areas it traverses." Detailed planning of the stations and segments of track aims to ensure that the service is accessible and beneficial to as many people as possible.

The officialization of the railway route marks an important milestone in the advancement of this development initiative, which is expected to have a significant impact on territorial equity and a more equitable distribution of growth opportunities for all regions of the country.
