These increases, for class 1 vehicles, have as a reference, as provided for in the concession contract, the annual inflation rate, without housing, registered in October on the continent, and the additional 0.1% contemplated by law due to the limitation in the increase in tolls imposed in 2023 due to the context of high inflation.
As Brisa announced today in a statement, toll rates on the highways under its concession will be updated by 2.21% from January 1, 2025.
The update mechanism covers 52 of the 93 class 1 toll rates, with Brisa highlighting that, as seen in the past, also in 2025 "there are cases of tolls that show a variation below the average or even zero, and in other cases, toll rates show a variation higher than the average, as they have not been updated in previous years".
This is what explains the increase in the two routes mentioned and why, for example, between Lisbon and Cascais (A5) it remains unchanged at 1.50 euros, while the trip between Lisbon and Oeiras increases by five cents, now costing 0.40 euros.
Traveling via CREL, in turn, will cost an additional 15 cents from January 1st, for a total of 3.70 euros, while the route Porto/Valença (A3) increases by 20 cents (to 9.95 euros) and the connection Marateca/Caia (A2/A6) increases 35 cents, to €15.05.
