The most likely technical motivation for a community seeking to develop a maglev train operation is:

They seek a rail line not affected by friction.

Maglev trains operate using magnetic levitation, which allows them to float above the tracks and eliminates friction with the surface, enabling higher speeds and more efficient travel compared to traditional trains that run on wheels.
