The WEST RAIL RELOCATION project WAS AN HISTORIC AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY, TEXAS AND TAMAULIPAS, MEXICO.<\/h4>\n

The West Rail was the first new international rail bridge to cross the Texas-Mexico border in over a century. The project opened up a key corridor through the City of Brownsville by utilizing the old rail right of way.\u00a0The West Rail project for Brownsville, Cameron County, Texas and Matamoros, Tamaulipas, Mexico was constructed to improve the safety and quality of life for local residents by reducing congestion and eliminating travel time delays for first responder personnel and residents during an emergency. The West Rail also greatly improved the transportation of goods and services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Project Highlight<\/h3>\n

The coordination of the West Rail project was extremely complex and involved more than 50 agencies on both sides of the border. The West Rail project was a result of more than 15 years of trying to solve the congestion and delays brought on by the rail crossings in the City of Brownsville.\u00a0 By relocating the rail line in Brownsville and Matamoros, 14 at-grade rail crossings were eliminated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
