The New Repactation of the BR 101 Contract in Espírito Santo Brings Innovative Advantages for Motorcyclists and Frequent Drivers

The changes in the duplicating contract of the BR 101 in Espírito Santo, approved by the Federal Court of Accounts (TCU), promise to transform toll payment in the region. Scheduled to be signed in 2025, the new agreement includes toll licensing for motorcycles and progressive discounts for frequent light vehicle users.

Toll Exemption for Motorcycles

One of the main novelties is the full toll authorization for motorcycles. This measure is already adopted in more recent road concession contracts and reflects a modernization of pricing policies. Currently, motorcyclists pay half the fee at each toll plaza, but starting with the new contract, they will benefit from free passage.

According to Marcelo Fonseca, superintendent of concession at ANTT, this authorized measure addresses a growing demand and promotes greater assets in the use of highways by motorcycles.

Progressive Discounts for Frequent Users

Another highlight, in addition to motorcycles, is the progressive discount for drivers of light vehicles who frequently use the toll. The benefit will be applied starting from the fifth passage of the same month and will work as follows:

The discount starts at 5% off the last paid toll.
With each subsequent passage, the discount is calculated on the previously paid amount.
By the end of the month, frequent users can save up to 90% of the total amount, depending on the number of trips made.

To take advantage of the benefit, it will be necessary to install an electronic sticker (TAG) on the vehicle, allowing for automated tracking of passages.

Differentiated Tolls by Type of Lane

In addition to the changes for motorcyclists and frequent users, the new contract provides for distinct tolls for single and dual lanes. This change reflects a more equitable charge, adjusted to the type of infrastructure available for drivers. However, the toll changes will only be applied after the completion of the duplication works.

The adjustment of the tolls will also be conditioned to the completion of 90% of the works provided in the new contract, especially during the first three years. This requirement aims to ensure that services are delivered on time, benefiting users.

Benefits for Users of the BR 101

The new rules represent a step forward in the relationship between performance and drivers. Among the main benefits are:

Significant savings for motorcyclists and frequent drivers.
Fairer charges with fees adjusted to the road’s infrastructure.
Greater transparency in the fulfillment of works and toll adjustments.

A giant printer called the “Ferrari” of concrete has landed in Latin America and can already build a 120-square-meter house in just 48 hours, making the traditional construction site look like something from the last century.

A British company has installed in the middle of the ocean the world’s first floating platform that generates electricity 24 hours a day from the temperature difference between the surface and the depths of the Atlantic, without relying on wind or sun.

Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has ceased to be a climatic phenomenon and has become a biological system that feeds on itself, with 8,000 kilometers in length, 37 million tons of algae, and scientists confirm that it is now permanent.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

Engineers had to pour concrete mixed with tons of ice throughout entire nights in the Dubai desert to erect the Burj Khalifa; any carelessness could clog the pipes half a mile high.

BYD officially enters the semiconductor race by launching the Xuanji A3, a self-developed chip in China that reinforces the technological verticalization strategy and can reduce costs in millions of smart vehicles.

While SpaceX lands rockets as a routine, Spain wants to enter orbit with its own recoverable microlauncher; the Miura 5 emerged from a Spanish startup, gained a complex in Kourou, and aims to transform small satellites into a sovereign European market.

India tested the Agni-5 capable of carrying multiple independent warheads and, in the same round, conducted the first firing of a scramjet engine, joining a group that only the United States, Russia, and China were part of.

Canada is preparing a billion-dollar megaproject with 3.5 GW of wind energy, up to 530 turbines, green hydrogen, and ammonia for export, in a bid that could place the country at the center of the new global race for clean fuels.
