摘要: Trade between the United States and Latin America brings various economic impacts to the Southwest's economy and transportation network. Measuring these impacts provides strategic information capable of identifying trade opportunities, infrastructure investment demands, and system bottlenecks in addition to quantifying the contribution of U.S.-Latin American trade in terms of value added, employment, and taxes. The purpose of this report is to analyze the impacts of U.S.-Latin American trade on the Southwest region's economy and transportation network. The report reviews current methods used to analyze the economic and transportation impacts of trade. Because there are few methods capable of adequately analyzing regional impacts of corridor-specific trade, the report presents a review of economic impact methodologies that are most relevant to analysis of trade corridors. Since ports are the major gateway for U.S.-Latin American trade, special attention is paid to methodologies addressing port economic impacts, specifically those applied to the U.S. Southwest.
