ADOT Works To Help Mexican Truckers Ease Through Border Inspections

Arizona’s trading relationship with Mexico has led to billions of dollars in economic impact. A key component of that trade is the ability of commercial trucks to cross the border in an efficient way — and any kind of slowdown would be an unwelcome challenge.

So a little more than a year ago, the Arizona Department of Transportation started a program aimed at helping ease traffic at the border by training Mexican truck drivers in getting their vehicles ready to pass inspection.

To talk about that, ADOT’s Director John Halikowski joined The Show.

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
