Bogotá – Central Railway Corridor

Connect the Bogotá–Cundinamarca Metropolitan Region with the Central Railway Corridor through a modern, intermodal railway system that reduces logistics times and costs, strengthening national competitiveness.

Summary

Objective

Key Goals

Identify and assess at least three alignment alternatives.
Implement BIM methodology across all project structuring phases.
Select the most technically and financially viable alternative.
Develop feasibility studies to integrate the project into the national rail system.

Market Opportunity

Since the 1970s, road transport has received the majority of transport infrastructure investment, leaving rail behind. Reviving the railway mode offers advantages in competitiveness, integration with Pacific and Atlantic ports, and logistics cost reduction. The PPP scheme opens opportunities for strategic partnerships with the private sector in structuring, financing, and project operation.

ESG Considerations

Environmental: Reduction of emissions compared to road transport, environmental diagnostics of alternatives, and contribution to transport decarbonization.

Social: Improved regional connectivity, strengthening of productive chains, and local job creation.

Governance: Compliance with regulatory frameworks (CONPES, DNP, MHCP), public–private coordination, and sustainable territorial planning.
