The Governor of Nuevo León, Samuel Alejandro García Sepúlveda, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Laredo Mayor Víctor Treviño and Green Corridors CEO Mitch Carlson to establish a framework for cross-border collaboration. 

The agreement outlines plans to develop major logistics and industrial centers in both Mexico and the United States, enhancing the role of the Colombia Bridge as a strategic trade corridor.

The signing took place at Dolores Ranch, where Governor García highlighted the rapid increase in traffic at the Colombia Bridge. “Just three years ago, we had only 800 crossings; today we have 10,000, and by 2030 we project 20,000 crossings,” he noted.

Strategic Projects in the U.S. and Mexico

Following the signing ceremony, the delegation toured key development sites including Talise, Gateway Industrial Park, and ongoing projects along Texas State Highway 255.

  • Talise Project: Located north of Laredo at the intersection of I-35, US-83, and TX-255, this development involves an investment of USD 8 billion across 13,000 acres (52.6 km²).
  • Gateway Industrial Park: Covering 3,300 acres (12.4 km²) in north Laredo, at I-35 and TX-255, this project is positioned to become a major logistics hub.
  • Interpuerto Monterrey (Salinas Victoria, Nuevo León): On the Mexican side, Green Corridors will establish its operations base at this strategic inland port, reinforcing Nuevo León’s position in regional and international trade.

Driving Cross-Border Connectivity

The MOU reflects the intention of both governments and Green Corridors to coordinate infrastructure planning, promote trade facilitation, and implement the company’s Intelligent Cross-Border Freight Transportation System. 

These initiatives aim to strengthen regional competitiveness and position the Colombia Bridge corridor as one of the most important gateways for U.S.-Mexico commerce.

In total, Green Corridors plans to invest USD 17 billion across these projects, consolidating its role as a key player in logistics and industrial infrastructure in North America.
