Most of the almost US$ 10 billion funds aimed at logistic infrastructure, which is a sector directly related to the transportation area, will be invested by the government in the road modal (US$ 7.3 billion, equivalent to 75%). The projects include works for adequacy, construction, maintenance and recovery of roads, in addition to studies and investments in weighing and speed control systems.
The railroad sector, including the High Speed Rail (HSR) connecting the cities of São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Campinas, should receive 16% of the total funding (US$ 1,6 billion). The remaining sectors (ports, waterways and airways) should receive US$ 523 million, US$ 174 million and US$ 17 million, respectively. Other US$ 87 million will be aimed at PAC management.
Total balance
The total investments provisioned in PLOA for 2012 amount to US$ 96 billion – US$ 34 billion from the fiscal and social security budgets and US$ 62 billion from state-owned companies. The total amount is 8.3% greater than that available in 2011. To make the estimations, the government used estimations, such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of 5%, inflation of 4.8% and interest rate of 12.5%.
