Just like very useful and fun Tren Urbano in San Jose, Costa Rica will now implement the use of a new train, this time from the Costa Rica Capital to Heredia city the entire re-instatement project ended up costing near to $1 074 000. This awesome news was released this past October 25th by Incofer.
After all the hard, long work of the first step to get the Heredia train up and running, the first trips will take place during the third week of December as recreational trips, so people can get used to the route, check the official stops and see how long it will take the potential regular travelers to get to their destinations. Costa Rica government did manage to go around a long series of issues before being able to get train route working. The new Costa Rica train to Heredia will begin normal operations in January.
It is amazing how Costa Rica, a country that has so many transportation problems has managed to find solutions in methods that were already taken as obsolete and forgotten. This new route will make the trip to Heredia a los faster and easier for many people in Costa Rica, given the fact that the work force in Heredia is one of the largest in the country due to the several Free Trade Zones. Costa Rica has also opened up for business to new world renowned companies such as Amazon and Experian this year.
The implementation of this train route is expected to help with the collapsed traffic during rush hours along the highway between Heredia and San Jose. Costa Rica traffic problems are worse and worse everyday; a regular trip on this highway during rush hour can hold one up to 2-3 hours, therefore extreme measures had to be taken.
