Route Description
Everything you need to know about the corridor Calgary - Houston
The Calgary-Houston corridor represents a vital trade route connecting Canada's energy hub with the petrochemical capital of the United States. This 2,830 km cross-border corridor facilitates the movement of specialized industrial cargo, equipment, and materials between two major economic centers. The route traverses diverse terrain through Alberta, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and Texas, crossing at strategic points like Sweetgrass, MT/Coutts, AB or other designated ports of entry.
The corridor serves critical industries including oil and gas, petrochemicals, manufacturing, and agricultural equipment.
