Free-Flow Tolls Begin on Dutra Express Lanes as Court Blocks Fines

Overview

• The new system charges only on the express lanes between km 231 (Marginal Tietê) and km 204 (Arujá), leaving the marginal route free of tolls.
• Tariffs vary by trecho, day and hour with base prices (e.g., R$1.37 to the airport) that can rise up to five times during peak periods and holidays.
• Drivers with tags receive a 5% discount and automatic billing, while plate-based users have up to 30 days to pay via website, app, totens or a partner service post.
• The concessionaire installed 21 gantries and integrated billing with the Arujá plaza, including a two-hour tolerance for brief exits to services without a new charge.
• The rollout comes alongside political scrutiny of free-flow placements on São Paulo state roads and as BR-364 in Rondônia awaits ANTT authorization to start charging, with motorcycles exempt there.
