Planning Transportation Corridors in Post-NAFTA North America
The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has been celebrated as a success for dramatically expanding trade between Canada, the United States, and Mexico. But the very success of NAFTA has illuminated weaknesses in the continental transportation system. Massive delays and congestion have now become the norm, especially in border regions. If the full economic benefits of NAFTA are to be realized, an integrated North American transportation system must be created. This article examines the challenges associated with planning and implementing such a system. Conventional transportation planning in North American borderlands has been reactive, demand oriented, piecemeal, and, not surprisingly, largely ineffective. New efforts are now underway that are more locally based, involving multinational approaches in project conceptualization, evaluation, scheduling, and financial coordination.
