Green Corridors is on a mission to improve the busiest international trade corridor in North America – Laredo, Texas to Monterrey, N.L., Mexico.
Current conditions at the U.S.-Mexico border burden trade and economic growth:
Existing "solutions" focus on adding more lanes, toll booths, inspection stations, staff, hours of operation, and resources in general—but do not tackle the root of the problem.
$2 Billion
In 2019, $2 billion in U.S./Mexico GDP was lost due to delays in border crossings.
Unacceptable wait times
Truck wait times at the U.S.’s busiest commercial bridge can be as long as 24 hours.
$100 Billion
If left unaddressed, these economic losses could exceed $100 billion by 2050.
Stop wasting time and resources on ineffective band-aid fixes and old-school thinking.
Green Corridors is the future of freight, providing an innovative, long-term solution for the most congested portion of this $300 billion trade corridor.
Green Corridors’ groundbreaking, sustainable GC-IFTS (Green Corridors Intelligent Freight Transportation System) offers a solution at Port Laredo that will benefit future generations to come by reducing congestion, bypassing gridlocked areas, and increasing border security.
Transformational infrastructure and technology:
Privately Funded
This solution requires no public funds or tax dollars. The GC-IFTS is funded by private capital.
Environmentally Friendly
With a hybrid propulsion system, our freight shuttles reduce emissions by 75%, providing a greener alternative to diesel trucking.
Lower Operational Costs
The system substantially reduces the overall cost of freight transportation compared to current market options.
Sustainable Inland Terminals
Equipped with solar arrays, regenerative cranes, and hybrid power, inland terminals bring eco-friendly technology to freight infrastructure.
Round-the-Clock Operations
The GC-IFTS runs 24/7, compared to the restricted 8am-midnight hours of current commercial bridges (Colombia Bridge, World Trade Bridge).
Benefits to Everyone
Investors
Green Corridors offers an opportunity to invest in transformational infrastructure that fixes a visible problem at the U.S.’s largest port.
Lawmakers
Precisely aligned with U.S. foreign policy goals, this project avoids eminent domain issues, prevents neighborhood encroachment, and enhances community safety by relocating inspections and keeping hazardous traffic out of urban areas.
Port Operators
GC-IFTS integrates real-time monitoring, bi-national customs collaboration, 100% freight screening, and secure, tamper-proof goods transport.
Local Communities
Redirecting freight traffic away from urban centers reduces traffic congestion, light and noise pollution, as well as emissions, improving quality of life for residents.
Logistics Companies
GC-IFTS provides a faster, more cost-effective, and secure transport option. By reducing idle time, drivers can focus on moving goods instead of waiting at the border.
