Drivers on Highways BR-365 and BR-364 Will Pay More at Toll Plazas. The Adjustment Authorized by ANTT Seeks to Maintain the Financial Balance of the Concession, Considering Technical Criteria and Investments, Although the Impact on the Budget Is Inevitable.
For drivers traveling on the Highways BR-365 and BR-364, unpleasant news is on the way: toll prices will be adjusted soon.
Starting from November 14, the rates at the toll plazas under the concession of EcoVias do Cerrado in Minas Gerais and Goiás will see an increase that promises to impact travelers’ budgets.
But what are the motivations behind this adjustment, and how will it directly affect drivers in these regions?

Increased Rates and Locations
The decision to increase rates by R$ 0.20 was authorized by the National Land Transportation Agency (ANTT) and published in the Official Gazette of the Union (DOU).
With this change, the basic toll rate will rise from R$ 5.70 to R$ 5.90 for category 1 vehicles, which include passenger cars.
This adjustment will be implemented at the following toll plazas on BR-365: Uberlândia (km 646), Monte Alegre de Minas (km 704), Ituiutaba (km 765), and Santa Vitória (km 834).
On BR-364, in the state of Goiás, the increase will affect the plazas at Paranaiguara (km 32), Cachoeira Alta (km 923), and Jataí (km 156).
Why Are Tolls Getting More Expensive?
According to the concessionaire EcoVias do Cerrado, this increase follows an annual tariff review stipulated in the contract.
This process, conducted by ANTT, takes into account various technical factors, including the Broad National Consumer Price Index (IPCA) and the investments made by the concessionaire during the period.
These elements are essential to ensure the economic and financial balance of the concession agreement and allow the concessionaire to continue providing maintenance and improvements on the highways under its management.
The annual update of tolls is viewed by the concessionaire as a reflection of operating costs and the commitment to quality service provided to road users.
According to EcoVias do Cerrado, the improvements occurring on these roads are, in part, funded by the revenue collected at the toll plazas.
Thus, the adjustment represents, according to the concessionaire, a way to ensure the continuity of investments and safety on the highways.
Criteria for Tariff Review
The annual tariff review follows a series of contractual and technical criteria established by ANTT. Among them, the IPCA is one of the central economic indicators, reflecting the accumulated inflation over the period and, consequently, the cost of inputs and services.
In addition, the agency considers the investments made by the concessionaire to improve road conditions, such as duplications, repairs, new signage, and road safety projects.
This way, ANTT seeks to maintain the financial balance of the contract, addressing both the interests of the concessionaire and the well-being of users.
Impact on Drivers and Next Steps
For drivers using these highways daily or on occasional trips, the increase in tolls may seem like a modest addition, but it accumulates over long distances or frequent routes.
This adjustment reflects the dynamics of concession contracts that aim to ensure the viability of operations while maintaining the quality of services offered.
Amidst this, users wonder to what extent these adjustments truly result in visible improvements on the roads.
Despite the technical arguments, the financial impact is felt directly in the budget, especially in an economic scenario where every additional expense is significant.
