The report is Volume 3 of the seven volume TransNET West project final report on Transportation and Trade Expansion in Western North America. The report summarizes trade and traffic flows between the U.S. and Mexico in terms of origin and destination, commodity classification, and mode of transport. A forecast of trade growth is included, with a review of its implications for the transportation system. The status of border crossing infrastructure is reviewed, to include pipelines and airports. Planned improvements (funded and unfunded) are profiled. Intermodal facilities and institutions active in U.S.-Mexico trade and transportation are identified. The report concludes with an examination of future trends in the economy, technology, and institutions which may affect the transportation system serving the border region. |
