The challenges of
sustainable mobility
Reduce the emissions by the
means of transportation, so
that they are no longer a public
health problem
Reduce greenhouse gas
emissions produced by means
of transportation to sustainable
levels
Alleviate traffic congestion
Significantly reduce the
number of deaths and
accidents related to the means
of transportation
Reduce the noise levels related
to the means of transportation
Lessen the disparity in
transportation conditions,
between rich and poor nations
Improve transportation for
the people of developing and
developed nations
The contribution of the CCR Group
Well-kept and signed highways provide better traffic flow and,
consequently, less polluting gas emissions.
In 2007, CCR invested around R$ 512 million in the upkeep of the
highways it administrates.
Well-kept and signed highways, together with guidance for
bordering communities, help to reduce accident rates. Moreover,
well-prepared and equipped emergency service teams contribute
to lowering the death rates.
During the first year of the concession, the highways administrated
by the CCR Group showed a 50% reduction in the number of
deaths and at least 10% in the number of accidents.
In service with RodoNorte since 2005, ecological asphalt ensures
a reduction of 65% to 85% of traffic noise levels
Paving based on French BBTM (Béton Bitumuneux Trés Mince)
specifications reduces traffic noise levels on the Castello Branco
highway, administrated by ViaOeste.
CCR seeks to provide services and quality on the highways it
administrates that are equivalent to those of the world’s best.
For that reason, it invests in upkeep, expansion, and signs on the
highways, uses new technologies (like electronic toll collection), and
the best highway building techniques, thus raising the quality and
traffic flow on the roads. Furthermore, in order to ensure safety
and quick service, the highways of the CCR Group are monitored
by cameras along their entire length.
The average driver approval rate of the work done by the
concessionaires of the CCR Group was 82%, in 2007, according
to the Datafolha Institute.
A study done by the National Transportation Confederation
(Confederação Nacional dos Transportes-CNT) showed that uses
of highways administrated by private enterprise are much more
satisfied with the roads than the users of highways managed
by public agencies. Four of every five (80%) drivers classified
concession highways as “excellent” or “good”, as against merely
17% of government-managed highways. According to the same
study, the top 23 highways of the rankings are under concession,
20 of which are administrated by private enterprise.
