This cross-border route spans approximately 2,905 kilometers and serves as a critical artery for commerce between the West Coast of the United States and the industrial heartland of northeastern Mexico. The corridor facilitates the movement of diverse cargo types, from manufacturing components to finished goods, supporting the integrated supply chains that characterize North American trade.
The economic significance of this corridor is underscored by the complementary industrial strengths of both regions.
