Our team will provide rail design and other services for the Industrial Park project
After extensive planning and preparation, TGB Group has officially joined the team! We signed an agreement in November with Industrial Park near Laredo, Texas, to provide rail design and consulting services.
Our first task was to review existing conceptual designs and give suggestions on ways to improve operations. We also developed a master plan for the rail to show the team the potential for future rail on the site, which spans more than 3,300 acres.
Industrial Park first phase
The first phase of the project will be to design the interchange infrastructure that will be needed to manage cars coming in and going back out of the park from and to Union Pacific Railroad.
Work in this phase will include:
- A wye (triangular junction) that will make it possible for trains to come and go from any direction
- Landing tracks large enough to handle any size train
- Drop and pull tracks to manage the interchange between the Union Pacific Railroad and the rail operator in the park
TGB will work closely with the team, which includes a rail operator, to ensure that all phases are designed for maximum operational efficiency.
About
Bridges business more efficiently than any commercial or industrial land development in the Laredo, Texas, area. The intersection of IH-35 and SH 255, located within its mixed-use center, provides close proximity to downtown Laredo, the Laredo-Columbia Solidarity International Bridge, the Nuevo Laredo International Bridge III, and Mexico.
This easy access makes it a natural fit for transportation terminals, cold storage and manufacturing.
