Highways of São Paulo Receive 20 New Radars, With 25 More Expected Soon! Operations Begin Between January 17 and 20. Find Out Where the Equipments Are and How This May Impact Your Traffic Safety. The Measure Promises to Reduce Accidents, But May Generate Controversy Among Drivers!

You may even press the accelerator, but on the highways of interior São Paulo, haste can be costly.

The installation of new radars promises to put an end to speeding and change the way drivers navigate some of the busiest roads in the state.

The initiative, which is already underway, aims to increase safety and reduce accidents, but will it please everyone?

According to information released by EcoNoroeste, the concessionaire managing various highways in the region, 20 new radars will start operating between January 17 and 20, 2025.

This update is part of a package that includes the installation of a total of 45 devices in sections that record high severity and fatality rates, previously mapped and approved by Artesp (São Paulo State Transportation Agency) and DER-SP (Department of Highways).

Where Will the New Radars Be Located?

The equipment has been strategically distributed across several important highways in the state. Below, check the details about the locations and the maximum speed limits:

Washington Luís Highway (SP-310)

In operation since January 10, 2025:

  • Kilometer 394+460m, Catiguá (capital-interior direction): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.
  • Kilometer 424+270m, Cedral (capital-interior direction): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.

In operation starting January 17, 2025:

  • Kilometers 434+600m, 438+160m, and 446+000m, in São José do Rio Preto and Mirassol (capital-interior direction): 90 km/h for all vehicles.

In operation starting January 20, 2025:

  • Kilometers 240+400m (São Carlos), 271+550m (Araraquara), and 390+290m (Catanduva): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.

Brigadeiro Faria Lima Highway (SP-326)

In operation since January 10, 2025:

  • Kilometer 343+760m, Jaboticabal (interior-capital direction): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.

In operation starting January 17, 2025:

  • Kilometer 363+510m, Taquaral (capital-interior direction): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.

In operation starting January 20, 2025:

  • Kilometers 328+000m (Guariba), 343+960m, and 351+900m (Jaboticabal): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.

SP-333 Highways (Carlos Tonanni, Nemésio Cadetti, Laurentino Mascari, and Dr. Mário Gentil)

In operation starting January 20, 2025:

  • Kilometers 104+540m and 118+800m, in Jaboticabal (Ribeirão Preto-Borborema direction): 110 km/h for light vehicles and 90 km/h for heavy vehicles.
  • Kilometers 145+200m and 173+320m, in Taquaritinga and Itápolis: 100 km/h for light vehicles and 80 km/h for heavy vehicles.

Why Were These Locations Chosen?

The choice of sections for the installation of radars was not random.

According to EcoNoroeste, the points were defined based on studies that identified critical areas with higher rates of severe and fatal accidents.

The approval by Artesp and DER-SP ensured the technical and legal viability of the operation.

In addition, the radars are meant to educate drivers and prevent accidents, more than just generating fines.

However, the enforcement of penalties will be under the responsibility of DER-SP, which will also be responsible for processing records and collecting fines.

Actions Planned for the Future

The new radars represent just a part of the larger plan for modernization of the highways.

The concession contract of EcoNoroeste with the São Paulo government includes improvements in transportation infrastructure, such as duplications, constant maintenance, and enhancement of signage.

These actions aim to ensure a safer and more comfortable experience for users.

Safety on the roads is a priority, but drivers will also need to be more attentive and adjust their habits.

Impact on Drivers’ Routine

The news of the installation of new radars is already generating debates among drivers and experts.

While some argue that the measure is essential to save lives, others criticize what they consider an increase in punitive enforcement.

The data, however, is clear: reducing speed in critical areas can significantly decrease the number of fatal accidents.

It remains to be seen whether driver awareness will accompany the implementation of this new technology.

A New Era on São Paulo Highways

With the operation of these new radars, the promise is for a safer and more controlled traffic.

However, it is undeniable that the changes will require greater commitment from drivers to follow traffic rules. After all, road safety starts with responsible choices behind the wheel.

And you, what do you think of this new measure? Will the new radars truly improve safety or just generate more fines? Comment below!

Esse Tarcisio de Freitas,também é alinhado com o “governo do amor”. Fora os policiais rodoviários que ficam escondidos com radares,para tomar do cidadão mais um pouco,para provar a incompetência do estado em fornecer estradas melhores,pois todas as principais rodovias,estão saturadas. E mais,pedágios,só servem para tirar mais ainda dinheiro do cidadão,não tem expansão de nenhuma rodovia em andamento. Agora surge a noticia do tunel que ligará Santos-Guarujá,legal,não fosse as condições precárias para se chegar na baixada,até seria bom. Mas a insegurança,impera em toda baixada santista. Ah,mais a obra é para turista,né
Ja viram a qualidade das pontes,e viadutos feitos nos ultima 20,30 anos? Os desníveis? E um tunel por baixo do mar,tem coragem?

FÁBRICA DE MULTAS. NÃO RESOLVEU NO PASSADO. PORQUÊ RESOLVERIA AGORA?

Essa fiscalização deve ser em todas as rodovias, muitas mortes por excesso de velocidade, tanto de carro como de caminhão e ônibus.
