The North Axis Intercity Train (TIC), which will connect Campinas in the interior of São Paulo state to the city of São Paulo at Barra Funda station, will cover the 101 km route in approximately 60 minutes. This will be Brazil’s first medium-speed train, offering an express connection between São Paulo and Campinas, with a stop in Jundiaí, reaching speeds of up to 140 km/h and a capacity of up to 860 passengers per trip.
In addition to the TIC, the project by the Government of the State of São Paulo, through the Secretariat for Partnerships in Investments (SPI), also includes the Intermetropolitan Train (TIM), which will connect Jundiaí and Campinas over a 44-kilometer route in 33 minutes, with stops in Louveira, Vinhedo, and Valinhos.
Construction on the TIC is scheduled to begin in 2026 and is expected to last five years, with delivery in 2031. Construction of the TIM is also set to begin next year, with a duration of three years and delivery planned for 2029.
The North Axis TIC represents a total investment of R$ 14.2 billion and will generate over 10,000 direct and indirect jobs, benefiting 11 municipalities and 15 million people in the region.
