A couple of questions.
- How do the goods get from the Mexican port to the US border? Do they have good roads?
- Who runs the Port? Is Dubai Ports World involved?
- Why would China abandon the terminals it owns on the West Coast of the US and go to Mexico?
- Why would China abandon the terminals it owns on the West Coast of the US and go to Mexico?
The west coast ports in Mexico would have to have overland routes and that would take some time to complete. However there are plans which do look at routes from the west coast of Mexico coming into west Texas. One route is shown here La Entrada-al-Pacifico
China may not abandon the west coast ports in CA but Walmart basically has and developed a large facility in Houston to off load up to 28% of their container imports using the Panama Canal with smaller ships and longer routes. Walmart's Bayport facility
