Hello Mr Marshall,
I have just learned that you are visiting us this very Saturday. These are excellent news as long as we will able to discuss the project details. Fortunately, for a quirk of fate it happened that your arrival is in the weekend, letting us time to visit the city.
Let me introduce to you a draft plan of the event. As soon as you arrived at the train station, a car will pick you up in order to drive
you to our headquarters. You will not have to worry for transport in your entire
visit due to this private driver provided by the company.
The whole morning is set for business purpose, with a brunch at 11:30.
Since the last presentation is placed
to be at 14:00, we have a reservation in the downtown at 14:30.
After that busy morning, the evening is free so far. However, let me propose a
might-be touristic plan. For my own experience guiding friends and partners in this wonderful city, the two 'must-be' are the central museum and the old beer factory. The former is one the most prestigious in Europe, while the latter is always the most appreciated among visitors, might it be because of the free beer?
In any case, the above plan is just a first version. Thus, we are awaiting for either your confirmation or suggestions on the abovementioned points to make your stance as pleasant as possible.
I am looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards,
Ser

"News" is a mass noun (also called a non-count noun). "News" always uses a singular verb, regardless of whether it is just one piece of news or an entire newspaper full of different news stories. Example: "This news was very unexpected."
"As soon as you arrive at the train station" or "as soon as you have arrived at the train station" will both work well in this sentence.
I think it sounds more natural to say "we have a reservation downtown at 14:30" (rather than "in the downtown"). However, if a sentence has a noun following "downtown", then it will be correct to add "in the" ("we'll spend the afternoon in the downtown historic district", "they should build more hotels in the downtown area.")
"Downtown" functions as an "adverb of place" in your sentence, and that is why it does not need a preposition. If you want learn more about adverbs of place, you can visit this website: https://www.englishcurrent.com/grammar/go-home-adverb-no-preposition/
Two options: "we are awaiting your confirmation" or "we are waiting for your confirmation" (I like your choice of the verb "awaiting" as it sounds extra polite -- very appropriate for this type of formal business letter).
You've done a nice job with your writing in this notebook, Sergio.
