The project's main objective was to enhance the speed and stability of local freight trains. With a projected increase in cargo volume reaching an impressive 235 percent of the previous level, Argentina's agricultural products will benefit greatly from the improved transportation infrastructure. The renovation has also led to a substantial reduction in transportation costs, thereby boosting the competitiveness of Argentinian exports.

These developments not only facilitate economic growth but also strengthen the country's ability to generate revenue from its agricultural sector. The successful completion of Phase I of the Belgrano freight railway renovation project sets a promising foundation for the future of Argentina's railway system, further connecting the nation and enabling efficient trade.

CMEC's dedication to delivering reliable and efficient infrastructure projects continues to demonstrate its commitment to fostering economic development and collaboration between China and Argentina.
