From Asia to the port of Salina Cruz was the journey of the Glovis Cosmosship that arrived at said infrastructure in Mexico on March 27 and with which the pilot program to move automobiles through the Isthmus of Tehuantepec Railway (FIT) began .
As T21 reported, and according to Héctor Rubio Antonio, deputy director of operations at FIT, this test would involve transporting 600 Hyundai vehicles , the largest South Korean automobile manufacturer.
Meanwhile, the Oaxaca government, through its social media channels, announced that after 90 years, “we are making history by hosting the first interoceanic vehicle crossing. With infrastructure and leadership, the Isthmus of Tehuantepec Interoceanic Corridor is now a logistics hub connecting Mexico to the world and consolidating Oaxaca as the engine of development in the south-southeast of the country.”
It should be noted that the vehicles were subsequently transported by rail to Coatzacoalcos and from there boarded a ship to reach the east coast of the United States.
“This morning (Sunday), the unloading of Hyundai vehicles began as part of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec Interoceanic Corridor strategy. The first Korean vehicles began to be located at the Port of Coatzacoalcos’s front dock No. 5. They arrived yesterday afternoon in approximately 50 Bi-Max vans directly from the Port of Salina Cruz,” Asipona Coatzacoalcos detailed through its social media.
