The concessionaire would be responsible for the design, financing, construction, operation, and maintenance of 48.9 kilometers of railway infrastructure. From the total km of the corridor, 25.3 kms will pass through urban areas and the remaining 23.7 kms through suburban/rural areas. The most suitable construction method, as preliminarily determined by the feasibility studies, is the development of two railway tracks (one in each direction) with 24 stations (10 underground, 13 at ground level, and 1 elevated).
