A rockslide occurred early on Friday morning, partially closing the Rodovia dos Tamoios (SP-099) at km 81 in Caraguatatuba. The rockslide was first identified by traffic inspection teams around 4:45 am, prompting immediate action to assess the situation. Engineering and maintenance teams were deployed to the area to begin cleanup efforts and evaluate the extent of the damage.

In response to the incident, the road was fully closed in the southbound direction due to the debris from the rockslide. The Tamoios concession company responded quickly by sending heavy machinery and trucks to the site for the removal of the fallen material. By 6:30 am, cleaning efforts had already started with the use of excavators and trucks, allowing for a partial reopening of the roadway.

The roadway in this segment features a dual carriageway with two lanes in each direction. The rockslide's occurrence raised concerns regarding the stability of the hillside in the area, prompting state transportation authorities to monitor the situation closely and ensure the safety of motorists. The ongoing cleanup and potential engineering evaluations highlight the importance of rapid response to such geological events on key transportation routes.
