Mexico’s railway regulation: the concession • In 1997 the Federal Government decided to create concessions to exploit railroad lines, with the objective of having a solid growth in this sector. • KCSM has the concession for the northeast route towards Laredo. • KCSM has invested over 3 billion dollars in the concession title and on the maintenance of our network, infrastructure, and equipment.
KCSM investments: urban profit • KCSM has invested in railroad terminals and in urban overpasses. • These investments have a positive impact in urban communities.
The PPP is a modern scheme that encourages investment in different fields. • PPP is a great tool for urban development such as overpasses and secure corridors, representing a better railroad operation within urban areas.
The new Act will attract more investment, because it will give companies more certainty. • The new Act will have a positive impact on infrastructure and transportation.
Conclusion • The Private-Public partnerships scheme brings great benefits. • Share best practices within the NAFTA region. • Will lead to a better integration of North America.
