Update: Punta Colonet Port and Riviera Maya Airport Plans

The Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (SCT), the leading agency of networks and communication channels in Mexico, plans to redesign the bidding processes for two of last year’s major projects: Punta Colonet in Ensenada, Baja California; and the construction of the airport in the Riviera Maya.

 

Punta Colonet was launched as a project in early September 2008, but that same year, in October, the SCT announced a new schedule of activities within the bidding process. A few months later, in early 2009, it announced that the mega project would be postponed.

 

This project was originally proposed as an attractive alternative to handle containers of Asian origin that could not land directly at the Port of Long Beach, California, in the U.S., due to saturation, and after that forward the goods to the U.S. via rail.
