The Port of Paranaguá in Paraná, which handled a record 65 million tons in 2023, plans to raise its capacity by 15%. This requires some changes in the port’s access, as well as expenditures in road and rail infrastructure. Luiz Fernando Garcia, CEO of Portos do Paraná, discusses the growth of the railway network, including the Moegão project and Nova Ferroeste, which connects the Port to the agricultural area of Maracaju, MS. Improvements on BR-277 are also needed to overcome traffic jam, with spending anticipated to total BRL 30 billion over the next 30 years.
