René Ramírez Villarreal (René Ramírez Villarreal), Director of Operations for Puerto Verde Mexico, provided an update on the project at Index Summit 2026, organized by Index Coahuila Norte in Eagle Pass, Texas. He emphasized the importance of ongoing dialogue with the manufacturing, export, and border crossing sectors, as exporters are the users most in need of efficient logistics solutions. The project adopts a mixed investment model, with the federal government holding a majority stake, developed in collaboration with private investors and specialized infrastructure companies.

This international bridge project is dedicated exclusively to commercial freight crossings by rail and truck, aiming to accelerate cargo transport and strengthen the supply chain that supports regional manufacturing. Ramírez Villarreal stated that the team is advancing the concession, engineering, and preliminary design phases, with years of preparation on the Mexican side, coordinating with authorities and development plans in both Mexico and the United States. The new port of entry will help alleviate congestion currently faced at several commercial border crossings between the two countries, which directly impacts the competitiveness of production chains.

The executive noted that Puerto Verde holds a strategic location to handle the growing trade flow between Mexico and Texas, connecting with logistics corridors linking the Pacific Ocean to the U.S. market. The project will impact key regional economic sectors such as the automotive industry and export manufacturing, particularly in Coahuila, where industrial activity is robust. Puerto Verde aims to provide new crossing options for industry and strengthen the logistics infrastructure needed for export manufacturing to remain competitive.
