In this case the simplest way is to not actually use a new voice but
just "change flavor".  I'd probably write this as

%%%
\version "2.24.4"

\fixed c'' {
  \time 3/4
  r2 c4~( |
  c8 d e f g a |
  \voices "",2
  << { \voiceOne b a g f e d) \oneVoice } \\ { r4 <e, g,> q } >> |
  c2. |
}
%%%
Note that if your ongoing Voice is named Voice = "soprano" (for
example), the \voices command needs to become \voices "soprano",2 in
order to attach the first-voice-formatting to the already existing
voice.
