Overview
- The Transport Secretariat formalized the two-year extension in Resolution 12/2026, published in the Official Gazette.
- The renewed term will run until June 12, 2028, taking effect when the original period ends under DNU 525/2024.
- Authorities cited CNRT’s 2023 evaluations reporting broad deterioration in infrastructure, rolling stock, investment planning, budget sustainability and service levels.
- The extension preserves extraordinary powers for the Transport Secretariat and ensures continuity for the Action Plan, urgent works and active contracts with legal and financial predictability.
- The emergency framework, set in 2024, covers all activities tied to maintaining rail infrastructure and operating services across the National Railway Network.
