Truckload rejection rates surge in largest US-Mexico cross-border market

Chart of the Week: Outbound Tender Reject Index, Outbound Tender Volume Index – Laredo SONAR: OTRI.LRD, OTVI.LRD

Shipper requests for truckload capacity are being rejected at the highest rates since the pandemic era in Laredo, Texas — the largest U.S. border crossing market.

The Outbound Tender Reject Index (OTRI) measures the percentage of truckload capacity requests that carriers decline. Since rejecting loads is generally undesirable for carriers, rising rejection rates indicate a tightening...

Why the intermodal market is in a ‘long peak’ right now

Intermodal volumes aren’t slowing down. By mid-December, we’re well past the time when goods bound by train would arrive in retail stores in time for Christmas shoppers, yet railroads are still carrying near-record numbers of boxes. Tariff pull-forward, consumer demand and inventory building are all driving higher intermodal volumes, setting the market up for rate increases next year.

Call it a “long peak.”

Total intermodal traffic in North America saw a significant boost last month, increasing...

CPKC completes second span over Rio Grande at Laredo gateway

The $100 million Patrick J. Ottensmeyer International Railway Bridge is officially complete.

The second span across the Rio Grande — linking Laredo, Texas, with Nuevo Laredo, Mexico — doubles Canadian Pacific Kansas City’s cross-border capacity because it allows the railway to eliminate the four-hour northbound and southbound directional running windows that created bottlenecks on its original lone single-track bridge.

“Completion of this internationally important project more than doubles our...

Storm damage causes delays at major Texas trade bridge

A severe storm Saturday night forced authorities to temporarily close the World Trade Bridge in Laredo, Texas, the busiest U.S.-Mexico commercial crossing in the nation.

The storm collapsed the roof of the Mexican commercial customs facility in Nuevo Laredo, directly across the border from Laredo. 

The closure hampered trucks hauling imported goods into the U.S. on Sunday and caused long delays for cargo transporters, Mexican officials said.

“As a result of the heavy rains that occurred at night...

Texas DPS ends truck safety inspections after $1.9B impact

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott may have stopped state-run truck safety inspections at the Mexican border, but business leaders said it could be weeks before cross-border traffic patterns return to normal.

“We hope that in the next three weeks, if we continue without setbacks, there will be good progress in the usual exports, as well as exports that have been waiting,” Manuel Sotelo, vice president of the Juarez chapter of Mexico’s National Chamber of Freight Transport (Canacar), said at a Tuesday news...
