The entire Rodoanel spans 176.5 km. The works on the section will converge the road with the Raimundo Pereira Magalhães avenue (SP-332), while the Eastern Section will meet with the Presidente Dutra highway (BR-116). Four lanes of traffic in each direction will be constructed between the Western Rodoanel and the Fernão Dias highway (BR-381), and three lanes of traffic will be constructed in the section between Fernão Dias (BR-381) and Via Dutra (BR-116).
In December 2018, the deadline for completion of the works had already been extended to 2019, which faced further delays. The section has already cost R$ 7.3 billion and, according to government estimates, an additional R$ 2 billion will be spent to complete the project.
