Ports-to-Plains Alliance
The Ports-to-Plains Alliance, based in Lubbock, Texas, United States, is a non-profit, bipartisan, advocacy group led by mayors, council persons and other local elected leaders, economic development officials, business and other opinion leaders from nine states (Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Nebraska and Wyoming) and one Canadian province (Alberta) which contains a 2,300-plus mile economic development corridor stretching from Texas to Alberta. The alliance was formalized in 2009 through an agreement between groups representing three congressionally designated High Priority Corridors on the U.S. National Highway System (NHS): the Ports-to-Plains Trade Corridor Coalition; Heartland Expressway; and the Theodore Roosevelt Expressway Association. Today, as the Ports-to-Plains Alliance, the coalition works together to assure continued prosperity in communities throughout North America’s energy and agricultural heartland.http://www.por ...
