Rodovia dos Bandeirantes

The Rodovia Bandeirantes (official designation SP-348) is a highway in the state of São Paulo, Brazil.

Once the traffic capacity of the Anhangüera Highway was exceeded in the 1960s, the state government decided to build another highway, with a much higher capacity and modern design, directly connecting São Paulo City to Jundiaí, Campinas and merging into the Anhangüera just after Campinas.

The Rodovia dos Bandeirantes was inaugurated on Saturday, 28 October 1978, by then President Ernesto Geisel and Governor Paulo Egídio Martins.

Built from a modern project (being one of the first highways in the country with three lanes in each direction, currently there are five from São Paulo to Jundiaí).
