Overview

• Peru’s Transport Ministry said Dohwa Engineering delivered a formal letter of intent to undertake the pre-feasibility study.
• The proposed corridor spans about 2,446 km from Tumbes to Tacna with planned stops across the coastal regions, including Lima.
• Officials pointed to prospective support through Korea’s official development assistance for the evaluation phase.
• Preliminary targets include a 16-hour end-to-end journey, around 113 million passengers annually and roughly 61.5 million tonnes of freight, pending validation.
• Authorities signaled that any construction would extend into the next administration, as Dohwa also advances a Chinchero–Cusco rail pre-feasibility study.
