Brazil: SP-333 highway section doubled before the end of summer
The SP-333 doubling project will be completed and put into service at the end of the summer. These modernization works, which has generated around 2,000 jobs, involved the doubling of 64 km of highway. As a reminder, in May 2023, VINCI Highways finalized the acquisition of a 55% stake in Entrevias from Patria, a Brazilian fund, and will hold the concession for two toll highway sections in Brazil until 2047.
Entrevias Concessionária de Rodovias is responsible for the operation, maintenance and modernization of the Central-West Paulista Highway lot, with a total of 570 kilometers of roads on the axis between Florínea, on the border with Paraná, and Igarapava, on the border with Minas Gerais. The concession contract signed with the government of the State of São Paulo provides for investments of R$ 3.9 billion in the restoration of highways, expansion of the road network and implementation of technologies and innovations that contribute to the provision of high quality services to users.
On July 27th, the Secretary for Partnership in Investments of the State of São Paulo and members of Artesp (Agência de Transporte do Estado de São Paulo) visited two stretches of the duplication work on SP-333 – Rodovia Rachid Rayes, between Marília and Assis, scheduled for delivery at the end of this month. Afterwards, they visited the highway between km 337 to 385, between Marília and Echaporã. Works are scheduled for completion by the end of August.
“The result of these works should directly impact the daily lives of at least 344.000 inhabitants, considering only the municipalities of Marília, Echaporã, Platina and Assis, in the case of short trips, but mainly it will expand and improve the production flow capacity industrial and agricultural sectors, favoring the logistics and movement of passenger and commercial vehicles through the Center West of São Paulo, from the State of São Paulo to Paraná”, says the Director of Engineering, Augusto Schein.
