The third railway line of the Paranaguá Container Terminal (TCP) has been inaugurated, adding 757 meters of railway track that expand capacity and provide greater fluidity to train operations within the port facility. The initiative was carried out by Brado Logística and began in March of this year.
"The new investment expands the terminal's operational capacity and strengthens an even more efficient, integrated, and sustainable logistics, connecting companies, regions, and Brazil with the world," TCP communicated.
"This achievement is the result of a collaboration that drives development and reinforces the role of the railway in cargo handling and the country's competitiveness. Where there is partnership, there is growth," it added.
The structure is expected to increase the capacity for moving containers by rail by approximately 20%. Likewise, the terminal is expected to manage up to 66,000 full containers per year starting in 2027, compared to the current maximum capacity of 55,000 cargo units.
In this regard, the CEO of Brado Logística, Luciano Johnsson, stated that "this advancement gains even more relevance in a state like Paraná, with strong and diversified production and an increasing participation in Brazilian foreign trade. Expanding railway capacity is strengthening the connection between producing regions, industry, and international markets."
"For Brado Logística, it is an important step in the plan to invest in infrastructure and in alternatives that accompany the evolution of the logistics chain and the needs of our clients, whom I take this opportunity to thank for inspiring us daily to seek efficient solutions that generate value in their businesses," he added.
It is worth remembering that TCP operated with two lines; while one train arrived at the operations area, the other departed, allowing for the loading and unloading of 41 containers at a time. With the new line and the maneuvering area, two trains will be able to operate simultaneously while a third departs, which could double the volume received per shipment to up to 82 units.
