Vinci SA plans to acquire a toll road concession in Lima in a deal valued at about 1.5 billion euros ($1.7 billion) as Europe’s largest construction company bets clogged routes in the Peruvian capital will generate traffic demand.

The French builder will take over concession-holder Lamsac and PEX, which operates the associated electronic toll collection system, from Brazilian owner Investimentos & Participacoes em Infraestrutura SA, the Rueil-Malmaison, France-based company said in a statement on Monday. The deal is expected to close in the second half of this year.
