Spanish term or phrase: derechos de llave
La tarifa por uso de vía es el único concepto que el Concesionario puede cobrar a los Operadores de Servicio de Transporte Ferroviario por su acceso a la Línea Férrea, por lo que no tiene derecho a solicitar el pago de derechos de llave, regalías o equivalentes por ese mismo concepto, sin perjuicio del derecho del Concesionario de brindar a los Operadores otros derechos y/o servicios y de convenir con ellos la respectiva retribución

English translation:literally, "key fees" (see below)
Explanation:
However, the proper idiomatic English equivalent would be "lease fees."

The sense of the Spanish text is this: The fee for use of the railroad trackage is the only fee that the concession-holder can charge the railroad-transportation service operators in connection with access to the railroad line. Consequently, the concession-holder is not entitled to demand the payment of lease fees, royalties, or any similar items. However, the concession-holder is still entitled to provide other benefits and/or services to the operators, and to agree with the operators on the corresponding payment for those benefits and/or services. -- HTH!

Explanation:
The URL below contains an article regarding railway transportation and, from the context, I believe that this "derecho de llave" is a right of usage/access to the railway infrastructure and would translate it, given the use of the word "access" in your text above, as right to use or right of usage.

Best of luck!
