  • Transportation Often Referred to As the ?South Texas Crossroads? Aptly
    Mr. Dale Fowler (CEcD, Victoria Economic Development Corporation, President) Web Site: http://victoriaedc.com Email: [email protected] Phone Number: 1.800.765.8198 Fax Number: 361.485.3190 Transportation Often referred to as the ?South Texas Crossroads? Aptly named for its outstanding location on the convergence of several major highways, the well-planned regional transportation infrastructure offers a variety of choices including rail, waterway, and air to move raw materials, finished products, and people in and out of Victoria. Highway Network and I-69 Project Victoria's excellent highway system includes US Hwy 59, US Hwy 87, US Hwy 77 with easy access to Interstate Highways I-10, I-35, and I-37. This network connects Victoria to neighboring cities, all parts of the United States, and internationally to Mexico. Victoria is the intersecting point on the "high-priority interstate I-69 corridor" project connecting south texas to Mexico. U.S. Highway 59 (future I-69) is a four-lane, divided, interstate-quality highway that extends southwest of Victoria to Laredo, and northeast to Houston where it meets I-10 and I-45. U.S. Highway 77 travels north from Victoria to the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex intersecting I-10, I-35 and I- 37, and south via a four-lane, divided highway to the Rio Grande Valley. U.S. Highway 87 travels northwest connecting Victoria with San Antonio and providing access to I-35, and to the southeast connecting with Port Lavaca. Rail Union Pacific (UP) is the primary operator of the rail lines in Victoria County. Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) and Kansas City Southern (KCS) have track rights to operate on the UP lines.

Texas has the most robust maritime system in the United States. In 2015, Texas was ranked first in the nation in total foreign imports and exports and second in the nation for total tonnage. The state’s maritime system continues to be a critical gateway to international trade and provides the residents of the state with a multitude of economic opportunities through the movement of waterborne commerce and trade. In 2015, the Texas Ports Association conducted an economic study focused on defining the value of Texas ports to the state and the nation. Maritime activity at Texas ports: • Moved over 563 million tons of cargo including 350 million tons of international tonnage and nearly 200 million tons of domestic cargo • Handled over 1.8 million containers • Served over 1.6 million cruise passengers • Supported over 1.5 million jobs in the state • Provided over $368 billion in total economic value to the state, 23% of the overall state GDP • Generated over $92 billion in personal income and local consumption of goods • Generated $6.9 billion of state and local taxes Texas ports are critical economic engines for their communities and the state.

Governor Patrick. I would like to thank him for his attention to these essential waypoints of the Texas economy and for the privilege of chairing the Committee. In the past months, my Senate colleagues and I have studied our state’s port assets (both coastal and inland hubs) and paid particular attention to the economic impact of the Panama Canal expansion. We have arrived at a number of conclusions on the matter of what our state’s economy must do to compete and grow. Thanks to the tireless efforts of this committee and the enthusiastic support of port authorities across the state, we have a much clearer picture of the unique role Texas ports play in our state’s economy. They are indispensable gateways to trade and economic growth which have fueled our state’s rise to the top ranking among America’s exporting states. That ranking is reflective of our ports’ ability to handle more than 20 percent of our nation’s total export tonnage. As improvements to the Panama Canal create a flow of larger vessels from distant trading partners, we must ensure Texas ports are equipped to sustain our economic leadership role.
