The infrastructure sector in Mexico has experienced a tumultuous year as the new federal administration settled in, rolled up its sleeves and rolled out a new direction in key areas that will define the economic backbone of the country for years to come. Change and adjustment are the hallmarks of the year in the sector. Among key projects, the government has highlighted The Mayan Train as the most important, aiming to foster socio-economic development and tourism growth in the south. The Mayan Train is a 1,525km construction that will connect the states of Chiapas, Tabasco, Campeche, Yucatan and Quintana Roo. Other infrastructure programs will target the country’s socio-economic growth.
