Operations
[edit]Portugal
[edit]In Portugal Brisa exclusively operates the following motorways with a concession lasting until 2035:[2]
- A1 - Auto-estrada do Norte
- A2 - Auto-estrada do Sul
- A3 - Auto-estrada Porto/Valença
- A4 - Auto-estrada Matosinhos/Amarante
- A5 - Auto-estrada da Costa do Estoril
- A6 - Auto-estrada Marateca/Caia
- A9 - CREL - Circular Regional Exterior de Lisboa
- A10 - Auto-estrada Bucelas/Carregado/IC3
- A12 - Auto-estrada Setúbal/Montijo
- A13 - Auto-estrada Almeirim/Marateca
- A14 - Auto-estrada Figueira da Foz/Coimbra Norte
Brisa owns 50% of Auto-Estradas do Atlântico, operator of the A8 and A15 motorways until 2028;[3] 70% of the Brisal concession, which is licensed to run the A17 road until 2034; and with a 45% stake[2] heads the Douro Litoral consortium which will operate the A32, A41 and A43 motorways until 2034.[4]
Two further tenders were awarded to consortia including Brisa in 2009. The firm leads the Auto-estradas do Baixo Tejo concession with a 30% stake, which includes construction, widening, operation and maintenance of motorways and Itinerários Complementares trunk roads in the Setúbal area.[2] Brisa also holds 15% of the Litoral Oeste concession, which covers 112 km of new and existing road around Leiria.[2] Both contracts were awarded through to 2038.
Other major investments held by the company within Portugal include 60%[2] of the Via Verde electronic toll collection system, also used in car parks and for other purposes;[5] 100% of roadside assistance firm Brisa Assistência Rodoviária; and 60% of Controlauto, a chain of outlets offering vehicle inspection services.[6]
The company has signalled its intent to diversify into other modes of transportation. In December 2009 a Brisa-led consortium was awarded a contract to construct the first stage of a high-speed rail link between Lisbon and Madrid by the Portuguese government, giving it a 40-year concession to operate the line within Portugal.[7] Brisa, along with Mota-Engil, also heads the Asterion consortium which intends to bid for control of the Portuguese airport authority ANA should it be privatised by the government; and with it the right to construct and operate the proposed replacement for Lisbon's international airport in Alcochete.[8]

[edit]In the United States, Brisa holds 100%[2] of the operation of the Northwest Parkway toll road near Denver, Colorado since 2007.[9] In 2007 the firm purchased 30% of Movenience, the electronic toll collection system used in the Western Scheldt Tunnel in the Dutch province of Zeeland;[10] this stake was increased to 40% in 2010.[2]
Brisa's 16.3% holding in Brazilian peer Companhia de Concessões Rodoviárias (CCR) was sold in June 2010.[11]
