Overview

The Ministry of Transportation is gearing up for a substantial overhaul of the highway sector with plans to conduct 12 highway concession auctions by 2024, marking a significant stride towards injecting R$122 billion in investments over the coming years, provided the contracts prove successful. These auctions, an integral part of the Brazilian governor's agenda, aim to offer a total of 35 concessions throughout his third mandate.

Among these endeavors, the government faces a pressing challenge with 14 contentious contracts awaiting resolution, notably including Concer's highway concession. These contracts, marked by financial and economic imbalances, have led to a substantial backlog of stalled projects. Recognizing the urgency, the Ministry is determined to unlock an additional R$110 billion in investments by streamlining these contracts and leveraging private resources for swift action.

While the inception of new concessions typically entails a two to three-year timeline to achieve peak investment, the renegotiation process has already commenced, advancing beyond initial preparatory stages. Nevertheless, the road ahead is fraught with challenges, particularly in navigating negotiations with concessionaires and engaging with the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU) to ensure a favorable outcome.
