Infrastructure development in Veracruz

Overview

Infrastructure development in Veracruz has focused on improving regional connectivity and logistics through significant road and bridge projects.

In September 2026, the Veracruz government completed the rehabilitation of a 25.7-kilometer stretch of the Federal 131 highway between Atzalan and Perote. The 108-million-peso project included pavement recovery, drainage improvements, and signage installation to address local demands and support upcoming events like the Carrera Panamericana.

Following this, in October 2026, President Claudia Sheinbaum inaugurated the Access Bridge to the Port of Veracruz. This 861-million-peso, two-kilometer project features eight lanes designed to separate long-distance transit from local urban traffic. The bridge aims to reduce travel times by up to 50 minutes for the 34,000 vehicles using the intersection daily, optimizing the flow of goods through the port.
