Two years after cause euphoria in the market, to win the concession of seven lots of federal highways with discounts reaching 65%, utilities rely on the government to replenish its cash. In practice, this would readjust the price of the toll rates or extend the schedules of investments, set to expand and modernize the roads. In short, once again who will pay the bill is the consumer.

The applications, called rebalancing economic and financial, were delivered to the National Land Transport (ANTT) companies OHL, Acciona and BR-Way. In 2007, they won handily in contention for Highway Fernão Dias (BR-381), Regis Bittencourt (BR-116), Transbrasiliana (BR-153), BR-101 (ES / RJ), BR-393 (MG currency / RJ to the Dutra) and a stretch between Curitiba and Florianopolis.

With bold moves, the companies left behind formidable competitors as Ecorodovias and CCR, the big winners of the 1st auction of federal highways, the Cardoso government. The proposals made by groups representing very low rates of tolls, which varied from R$ 0.997 to RS 3.865 - a fact that was widely celebrated by the government.

Now, however, the utilities argued that they were hindered by the state bureaucracy to start the activities of collection of toll, which would have caused injury to millions. According to the director general of ANTT, Bernardo Figueiredo, requests to balance, they argue that the construction of the toll were hindered by delays in obtaining environmental permits and land expropriation. The information is the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo.
