Global News:

Mexico is stepping up to offer a new logistics alternative amid challenges faced by the Panama Canal, such as droughts and global trade disruptions. The country is developing the Isthmus of Tehuantepec’s Interoceanic Corridor, a $2.8 billion, 188-mile railway project aiming to facilitate up to 1.4 million twenty-foot equivalent units annually by 2033. While there’s skepticism about its potential to replace the Panama Canal, the initiative could diversify global trade routes and impact shipping strategies, particularly for North America.
