One year ago today, we dedicated the second span of the Patrick J. Ottensmeyer International Railway Bridge, the only railroad bridge crossing the Rio Grande, linking Laredo, Texas, and Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, across the U.S.-Mexico border.
By providing new capacity, the Ottensmeyer bridge enables more secure and more efficient international trade via our new services providing expanded options and reach to our customers. Our premium MMX service connects Chicago to Mexico while our SMX provides those secure, efficient cross border service options to customers moving goods from the Southeast and Dallas to Mexico.
