Everything you need to know about the corridor Montreal - Annapolis
The Montreal-Annapolis corridor represents a vital cross-border freight transportation route connecting the industrial heart of Quebec with the strategic port city of Maryland. This 764 km corridor traverses the northeastern United States, facilitating the movement of goods between Canada's second-largest metropolitan area and the Chesapeake Bay region. The route serves as a critical link in the North American supply chain, enabling seamless trade between two major economic zones.
