SAO PAULO (Reuters)-The 285 kilometers of São Paulo highways on Friday, gathered in the so-called Lot Paranapanema, was won by an investment fund, offering 11.60% discount on the value of public consideration of R $ 310.2 million, according to a result proclaimed by the organizers of the event.
The winning fund of the auction, which disputed with two other stakeholders, including a consortium formed by construction companies and Galapagos Participações, was the Infra Br V Missouri Holding III, according to B3 information.
The Paranapanema lot will allow the full duplication of the Raposo Tavares Highway, which connects the state capital and the port of Santos to the Midwest region of the state, being an alternative corridor to the Castello Branco Highway, according to the São Paulo State Government.

The winner is committed to investments of R $ 5.8 billion over 30 years of contract, which will be applied in a duplication of 147 kilometers of highways and construction of 29 catwalks, among other works. The lot is part of 1,800 kilometers of qualified highways in the São Paulo State Investment Partnership Program (PPI-SP).
The Paranapanema lot involves stretches of Raposo Tavares (SP-270), between Ourinhos and Itapetininga, as well as complementary highways (SP-189, SP-278, SPA-204/270, SPA-245/270, SPA-326 and SPA-312). Eleven cities will be influenced by the project, according to state government data, as well as Ourinhos and Itapetininga.
“The full duplication of Raposo Tavares in this stretch will consolidate a new strategic corridor for agribusiness, connecting the interior of São Paulo and the Midwest region to the port of Santos,” according to the government.
