29 Projects for High-speed Trains in Brazil BRAZILIAN HIGH SPEED LINE (RIO DE JANEIRO SÃO PAULO CAMPINAS) Hélio Mauro França Executive Superintendent - ANTT

30 RIO SÃO PAULO HIGH SPEED LINE - Background In recent decades, several studies were developed, sponsored or authorized by the Brazilian Government, with a view to implementing a new railroad between Rio and São Paulo, for passengers and freight. In 2007, the Government decided to review previous studies and contracted a consortium to prepare a feasibility study for a high speed railway line, with a maximum line speed of 350km/h, over 511 kilometres connecting the cities of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Campinas in Brazil. The Consortium prepared detailed studies: vdemand and Revenue Forecasts; valignment Studies; vfinance and Economics Appraisal and Concessioning; vrail Operations and Technology; vtav Capital Cost. The most comprehensive study ever conducted.

115 Ministry of Transportation Transport Policy and Planning

116 The transport matrix is unbalanced considering the size of Brazil 13% 4% Road Rail Water Pipe/Air 25% 58% Ministry of Transportation

117 which is proved as compared with similar-size countries. Russia 81% 8% 11% Canada 46% 43% 11% Australia 43% 53% 4% USA China Brazil 25% 37% 43% 32% 25% 50% 13% 58% 17% Ministry of Transportation Rail Road Water & others

118 To organize such scenario and recover the transport sector, the Ministry of Transport has developed the National Plan for Logistics and Transportation (PNLT) An instrument for strategic organization with an integrated view on the territory and development. Transport as an agent to induce and facilitate development. A more balanced Brazilian transport matrix with a significant participation of rail and water modes, which are more efficient in terms of economy and energy consumption, with less emission of CO2 and NOx. Ministry of Transportation

119 PNLT indicates ways to change the transport matrix Consolidation of a new Brazilian rail network (Law 11772/2008) with the implementation of 11,800 km of new rail lines, with 10,700 km of large-gauge tracks. New railways will serve areas of agricultural & mineral new frontiers. This new basic railway system prepares the Country for a new economic growth cycle to meet the domestic demand increase and integration with exporting ports. Gradual transfer of general cargo from roads to railways, inland waterways, and coastal shipping. Ministry of Transportation
