CASAPIA SOTO, Henrry Gastón. Comparative Analysis of Mining Freight in the Central Region. Ind. data [online]. 2021, vol.24, n.2, pp.79-98.  Epub Dec 31, 2021. ISSN 1560-9146.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/idata.v24i2.19215.

This study provides a comparative analysis of the land transportation infrastructure in Peru, where there is intermodal competition, specifically between road and rail in the Región Central (Central Region). Based on this analysis, which means of freight transport used to carry goods such as solid bulk, considering producers and consumers competing for mining logistic contracts to the Port of Callao, is established. The results show that transferring mining freight from road to rail reduces vehicular congestion caused by the intensive use of trucking.

Keywords : Transportation infrastructure; intermodal competition; freight transportation; solid bulks; mining logistics..
