After two failed attempts to procure Brazil’s first high-speed railroad, the National Terrestrial Transportation Agency (ANTT) has divided the project into two 40-year concessions for bidding next year and in 2014. Planned to open in 2020, the 511-km line has also been slightly rerouted to enter the international airports at the end points, Rio de Janeiro and Sâo Paulo, and also some others along the route.
