With over 7 million drivers traveling on Cintra-managed highways in Texas each year, Brooke Akins, Cintra\u2019s Global ESG Director, addressed the economic impact of managed lanes on the communities they serve with Craig Hulse, Director of Economic Development for the City of North Richland Hills. Robert Hinkle, Director of Corporate Affairs for NTE Mobility Partners LLC and LBJ Infrastructure Group LLC, moderated the panel discussion.<\/p>\n

Cintra partnered with Steer consulting firm to prepare its Economic Development and Social Impact Report<\/a>, which analyzes Cintra-managed highways in the areas in which they operate. The report found Cintra-managed highways have generated $17.2 billion in economic impact for the state of Texas and over $5 billion in local benefits.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n

\n All these impacts will continue to grow over time, and now we can look to optimize and protect those values for our partners, our DOT partners and users of these roadways. We are committed to providing a safer environment for all drivers with a multi-year vision that will adapt and evolve as automated adoption grows. <\/blockquote>\n\n
