Serving the Asia-Pacific

The Asia-Pacific Corridor Initiative aims to build the world’s best transportation network for global supply chains between Asia and North America. Our central proximity to major distribution points in North America has made us a key partner in this initiative.

Our location also provides enhanced shipping efficiency from Asia to North America: Vancouver provides shorter shipping times to and from China than Los Angeles.

Infrastructure

In an environment where the movement of goods is timed to the minute, the GTH is designed specifically to meet the needs of heavy-haul transportation and logistics operations.

Rail access

Direct access to the Canadian Pacific Rail's (CP) mainline, connecting Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Gulf Coast and Great Lakes ports and Midwestern U.S. trans-shipment points.
We're home to CP's new intermodal yard, which has the capacity to expand to up to four times its current size to meet future demands.

Logistically superior roadways

Our extra-wide, double lane roadways are tailored to be easily accessible for even the longest combination vehicles, ensuring high volume and velocity of truck movements.
Deliver more with less – trucks, fuel, and emissions – and keep the cost of goods affordable for your customers.

National highways

Access to two national highway system routes: the TransCanada Highway runs West and East between the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean coasts; and Highway 11 runs North and South and connects to the Yellowhead Highway.
Trucking connections to all major networks into the United States and Mexico.
Our location provides free-flowing highway access, compared to the severe bottleneck of urban ports.
