This cross-border route traverses diverse terrain and connects the Caribbean coast of Honduras with one of Mexico's most important industrial hubs in the Bajío region.
The corridor passes through key commercial zones including San Pedro Sula, Guatemala City, and Mexico City before reaching Irapuato.
