Abstract:Trade flows across the three North American countries have increased substantially since the
implementation of the North American Trade Agreement (NAFTA), but there is no movement toward
developing a true North American Transportation Corridor Network. This report examines two types of
North American transportation corridor networks. The first is a transportation infrastructure network that
spans across the three North American countries, including highways, railroads, and port of entries which
are all part of a large multimodal transportation network. The second type of networks analyzed, is a
research network that is a collection and collaboration of organizations, individuals, and research that have
the goal of improving transportation in North America. Through this research project, a group of
transportation experts from the United States, Mexico and Canada was assembled through a webinar to
discuss issues related to a North American transportation corridor plan. The formation of a North
American transportation center is recommended to research and educate government officials on the
current and projected state of transportation in North America.
