Brazil federal highway concession developments

Overview

Brazil’s federal highway concession portfolio, regulated by the National Land Transport Agency (ANTT), has reached a total value of R$ 525 billion. This total encompasses R$ 306 billion in planned investments and R$ 219 billion for operations, maintenance, and user services across 36 contracts covering 18,100 kilometers.

Recent developments include the optimization of the Régis Bittencourt (BR-116) highway, awarded to EPR, which involves R$ 7.2 billion for infrastructure and safety. Upcoming processes include the transfer of control of Via Brasil BR-163 on November 12, a project valued at approximately R$ 15.14 billion.

In Bahia, the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU) approved the auction project for the Rota 2 de Julho, involving sections of the BR-324 and BR-116 highways. The decision removes previous restrictions that prevented ViaBahia from competing for these road administrations. The project is expected to implement a ‘free flow’ tolling system and includes mandates for budget adjustments, such as duplication works on parts of the BR-116 and toll discounts for construction delays.
