October 2014 Major Infrastructure Projects in Mexico 3 About This Guide The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) helps companies create U.S. jobs through the export of U.S. goods and services for priority development projects in emerging economies. USTDA links U.S. businesses to export opportunities by funding project planning activities, pilot projects and reverse trade missions while creating sustainable infrastructure and economic growth in partner countries. This guide has been developed to provide U.S. companies and exporters with an overview of Mexico’s infrastructure sectors, the sector development plans in place through 2018, and to provide profiles of a sample of specific, upcoming projects of potential interest. Currency amounts converted from Mexican Pesos (MXN) to United States dollars (USD) have been done so using a rate of 13.12 pesos to one dollar. Due to fluctuations in currency values, different levels of engineering and cost estimation completion for different projects, and differing timing of cost information publication, the monetary values within this report should only be considered approximate. Unless explicitly indicated otherwise, all currency values are in United States Dollars (USD). All exhibits and images are sourced from Mexican government publications, unless otherwise indicated. Authors This report was developed under contract to USTDA by the Seneca Group LLC, based in Washington, DC.
