Port of Topolobampo

In 2008, dramatic improvements began at the Port of Topolobampo. Those improvements continued in 2009. Dredge and fill material obtained by excavating the mountainous terrain on the peninsula have yielded an additional 100 acres in functional property and over a mile of additional docking space for ships.

These improvements, along with dredging the canal to a depth of 39 feet currently have been made possible by the investment of approximately $20 million (USD) over the last two years. Over the next year, another $26 million will be spent to continue dredging activities to a depth of 42 feet and retrofitting the port to accommodate a variety of marine freight.
