Cabotage enforcement measures are posing new challenges for cross-border trucking between the United States and Mexico, according to Knight-Swift Transportation CEO Adam Miller. The stepped-up scrutiny of Mexican drivers and their previous employers has led to visa revocations over alleged violations committed under other carriers, Miller said.
This could result in a tightening of cross-border trucking capacity. In other news, the state of Nuevo León has slashed toll fees for commercial trucks using the Colombia Bridge to boost cross-border trucking. Walmart, meanwhile, is set to open a $400 million distribution center near San Antonio, creating 425 jobs.
