U. S. - Mexico Border
Author: John Hutton
Publisher: DIANE Publishing
ISBN: 9780756704933
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
Trade between the U.S. and Mexico has more than doubled since NAFTA went into effect. Most of this trade crosses the border by truck. This report addresses congressional concern that the border area was shouldering a disproportionate share of the costs of increased trade activity and that congestion problems related to expanded traffic were not being adequately addressed. It provides information and analysis on (1) the nature of commercial truck traffic congestion at the southwest border; (2) the factors that contribute to congestion; and (3) the actions, including programs and funding, that are being taken to address these problems. Charts and tables.

Measurement and Analysis of Traffic Loads Across the Texas-Mexico Border
Author: Joseph Paul Leidy
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Traffic flow
Languages : en
Pages : 108
Book Description
Axle load and gross-vehicle weight characteristics of Mexican-origin commercial trucks processed through the U.S. Customs yard in the city of Laredo, Texas, are described in this report. Investigation of these characteristics particular to Mexican-origin trucks is directed by a Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT)-sponsored study entitled "Multi-Modal Planning and the U.S.-Mexico Free Trade Agreement" as a prerequisite to evaluating the potential damage to Texas highways posed by international trade traffic. Justifiable concern exists not just with the increasing volume of trade-related truck traffic, but also with the loads carried by Mexican-origin trucks. This study is facilitated by the installation of a weigh-in-motion (WIM) system at the preeminent Southwestern commercial truck port-of-entry (Laredo). Load summaries are presented on five basic truck classes (by axle count) and are based on the original Association of American State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) pavement damage relationships.

Overview of the Texas-Mexico Border

Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Mexican-American Border Region
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Effective transportation planning for the 1,230-mile (1,980-km) long Texas-Mexico border must take into account not only the unique characteristics of a binational environment, but also the possible impacts of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Accordingly, this study developed two complementary concepts useful in such binational transportation planning: sector analysis and super-crossing. Sector analysis--a concept based on major traffic diversion areas--provides aggregated revenue and/or demand estimates that address regional (as against site-specific) transportation planning issues. The super-crossing concept, developed to address post-NAFTA commercial traffic, is based on Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) guidelines intended to foster multi- and intermodal facilities. Both concepts are fully described in this report. Additionally, border transportation planning and the implementation of sector analysis methodology require, in turn, assessments of traffic flow patterns and of post-NAFTA socioeconomic indicators. Thus, NAFTA socioeconomic impacts and origin and destination patterns are included as study objectives, both of which are fully documented in this report.
