Paraná state secures additional funds for highway works

Brazil’s Paraná state reached an agreement with highway concessionaire RDN Participações that will see the firm invest an additional 321mn reais (US$61mn) in highway improvements.
Among the planned works is adding around 7km of lanes to the PR-151 highway, the state said in a press release.
Formerly known as RodoNorte, the concessionaire was one of several companies targeted by the prosecutor's office due to alleged toll collection irregularities. After years of negotiations, the company reached a leniency agreement with the state authorities.
"As we did in other [leniency] agreements with concessionaires, we are prioritizing works that resolve traffic bottlenecks that have caused accidents and deaths for years," said Fernando Furiatti, the state’s infrastructure and logistics secretary.
