| Abstract | The Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA) of 1991 calls for a study of U.S. international border crossings. The objective of the study is to identify existing and emerging trade corridors and transportation subsystems that facilitate trade between the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The appendix contains a series of border crossing profiles covering the major crossings and in some cases minor crossings in the border frontier. The frontier itself is a definition created for the 6015 Study to aid in the analysis of trade and traffic flows. The crossings included in this discussion include all commercial ports in the frontier, all ports identified as having infrastructure needs, and most of the smaller ports if traffic volumes warranted. These latter predominantly serve local needs. |
