From this Sunday, March 30, drivers traveling through Sorocaba will already begin to feel the positive effects of the new Rota Sorocabana Lot road concession, implemented by the São Paulo Government, through the Investment Partnerships Secretariat (SPI). On the José Ermírio de Moraes Highway (SP-075), the toll rate will be reduced by up to 25%, a direct reflection of the new policy of tariff justice associated with the concession model, which modernizes contracts and paves the way for the arrival of Free Flow – the electronic toll without a gate.
At the plaza located at km 13.325 on the SP-075, in Sorocaba, the amount charged at the automatic booths will drop from R$9.00 to R$6.74, and at the manual booths it will rise to R$7.10. The change, approved by Artesp (the state’s transportation regulatory agency), represents an advance in the way the state plans and manages its highways.
The new concession introduces a more modern and efficient model, which foresees the gradual replacement of physical toll plazas with an electronic charging system proportional to the distance traveled. Free Flow will make journeys faster, safer and fairer: those who walk less, pay less, without having to stop at the toll plazas.
This is one of the first concrete deliveries of the new concession contract, which in addition to reducing fares, will bring investments in infrastructure, greater road safety and smoother traffic flow.
The Sorocaba region, one of the most strategic in the countryside, will become a benchmark in the application of a model that combines efficiency, innovation and fair tariffs.
