At the end of the [[Second Great War]], Cartadania began to restructure its government agencies for greater efficiency and oversight, while also promoting collaboration between agencies to reduce costs and focus efforts on modernity. One of the changes within the [[Department of Transportation (Cartadania)|Department of Transportation]] was the consolidation of CERA, LusoRail, and Rail Logistics Cartadania (LFC) into a single agency, known as ''Operadora da Rede Nacional Ferrovíario'', from which Orenvia derives its name ('''O'''peradora da '''Re'''de '''N'''acional Ferro'''vía'''rio). Consolidation brought everyone under a single roof and allowed projects to be worked on much more efficiently. As Cartadania rapidly moved towards electrifying its rail network, a project it completed in 1983, and areas of hyperurbanisation, Orenvia proved to be the perfect solution for the DOT, which was still responsible for highway construction and management, especially during a time of rapid buildout. | At the end of the [[Second Great War]], Cartadania began to restructure its government agencies for greater efficiency and oversight, while also promoting collaboration between agencies to reduce costs and focus efforts on modernity.

The [[Álvares Transportation Act| | The [[Álvares Transportation Act|1986 Álvares Transportation Act]] separated the management, maintenance and construction of rail infrastructure from train operation, thus the first activity became the responsibility of the Escritorio de Infraestrutura Ferroviária (EIF), an office under the DOT and the legal successor of CERA, while the newly created Orenvia owned the rolling stock and remained responsible for the planning, marketing, and operation of passenger and freight services. In April 1998, however, then-President [[Maria Hernandez]], reversed the act and the 191st National Congress merged the two back together, giving Orenvia sole control of railway infrastructure. | ||
