Cross-border freight on the rise at both borders

Ccj Logo White Headshot

According to the latest report from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, total transborder freight in North America was up 7.5% in February over the same month a year ago. That was driven by a 4.4% increase in freight between U.S. and Canada, and a 10.6% increase in U.S.-Mexico freight.

Of the $128.9 billion of transborder freight moved in February across all modes, trucking moved by far the largest portion of that -- $83.4 billion.

Ryan Williams, vice president of solutions and head of cross-border at Coyote Logistics, joins us this week on The 10-44 to talk about what his company is seeing and how it’s handling the influx of cross-border freight.
