Infrastructure and road maintenance in Brazil

Overview

Infrastructure maintenance and roadwork projects across various Brazilian regions continue to cause significant disruptions to traffic and mobility.

In São Paulo, structural improvements on the Rodovia Padre Manoel da Nóbrega in Itanhaém involve the construction of a new elevated structure, with specific U-turn closures expected to remain in place until October 2027. In Rio de Janeiro, RioSP is conducting works on the Via Dutra in Barra Mansa and performing rock removal in the Serra das Araras region.

In the central-west region, Mato Grosso has implemented a total blockade on the BR-364 near Várzea Grande to facilitate bridge construction, while the BR-163 is undergoing urban improvements in Lucas do Rio Verde. In Goiás, Goinfra continues asphalt recovery works across 20 municipalities.

Urban mobility is also being shaped by social, political, and electoral factors. Campo Grande continues to manage street closures due to religious, social, and agricultural events, alongside pothole repair programs. In Cuiabá, election-related security measures have caused lane closures on Avenida do CPA. To facilitate voter movement during the 2026 elections, municipal bus services in Campo Grande and Belo Horizonte will be provided free of charge, with reinforced schedules matching weekday frequencies.
