Abstract

In structured analysis from the theory of geographical space, this article aims to demonstrate the peculiarities and territorial dynamics that confirmed the insertion of the nodal complex composed by fluminense (Resende-Três Rios-Petrópolis-Rio de Janeiro) and mineiro (Divinópolis-ConselheiroLafaiete-Belo Horizonte-Ipatinga) polygons, and by capixaba (Cachoeiro de Itapemirim-Vitória-Aracruz) and Macaé-Arraial do Cabo axes like centralities of road freight transport geographical network, whose territorial configuration consists of nodals and lines which together express the organization and structuring of this activity in the Brazilian social and spatial formation and show a selective spatial process that privileged certain points and areas in detriment of others, marked by concentration and action of its agents.
