The Brazil–Peru Railway or Bi-Oceanic Railway[1] is a proposed transcontinental railroad project that will link the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans via Bolivia. In 2017 it was estimated to cost € 12 billion.[2]
The project was brought up in 2013 by heads of state Evo Morales and Xi Jinping as an alternative to maritime shipping between China and South America’s Atlantic coast.[3]
On 6 December 2017 the head of state of Brazil and Bolivia signed an agreement for the upcoming track. There are two options for a track in a discussion: From Santos (Brazil) to Ilo (Peru) or from Santos (Brazil) to Matarani (Peru).[citation needed]
