With 331 km in length, a total investment of R$ 1 billion, and delivery expected by April 2026, the highway is advancing in its final phase and consolidates the largest highway concession in a northeastern state

The Transcerrados PI-397 highway, with a length of 331 km and a total investment of R$ 1 billion, is expected to be completed by April 2026, connecting Sebastião Leal to Bom Jesus and consolidating the main logistics route for the agricultural business in Piauí.

The construction is in the third and final execution phase, overseen by the Piauí Department of Highways (DER-PI), after completing 236 km of paving delivered in the first two stages.

Largest Highway Concession in the Northeast Advances with PPP Model

Considered the largest highway concession in the Northeast, the Transcerrados is managed by a public-private partnership by CS Grãos, gathering public and private resources totaling R$ 1 billion over the three project phases.

Logistical Infrastructure Boosts Production and Attracts New Enterprises

According to DER-PI’s director-general, Leonardo Sobral, Transcerrados is the main route for the state’s agricultural production and supports new productive investments in the region.

“Ethanol plant, slaughterhouse, and poultry farm. The establishment of these enterprises confirms that planned investments generate employability, economic, and social development,” said Leonardo Sobral, director-general of the DER.

The region traversed by the highway is a major soybean producer, with projections of 5.7 million tons of grains in 2025, generating more than R$ 13 billion in the Piauí economy.

Among the projects attracted by the logistical improvement logistics is the corn ethanol plant of Grupo Brasbio Progresso, in Uruçuí, with estimated private investments of R$ 1.18 billion.

Also in Uruçuí, the poultry slaughterhouse of Grupo Nutriza expects an investment of R$ 2.1 billion, expanding the productive chain, generating direct jobs, and strengthening the regional agricultural sector.

These investments, associated with the completion of Transcerrados by 2026, consolidate the highway as a structural axis for logistical, productive, and commercial development in Southern Piauí.
