Anchieta-Imigrantes highway traffic and weather disruptions

Overview

The Anchieta-Imigrantes highway system in Brazil experienced significant operational challenges during the Independence Day holiday period. Initially, heavy traffic volumes from travelers returning to São Paulo necessitated potential traffic management measures, such as ‘Operação Subida’, to handle an estimated 330,000 vehicles.

Weather conditions, including fog and low visibility, caused intermittent closures of the Interligação Planalto and required ‘Operação Comboio’ to control vehicle movement. These issues escalated as heavy rain, overcast skies, and fog led to the closure of several specific access points and ramps on both the Anchieta and Imigrantes highways, particularly near the km 40 and km 42 marks.
