As the third largest and second most populous country in Latin America, Mexico has developed an extensive transportation network. Regulated by the Secretariat of Communications and Transportation (Secretaría de Comunicaciones y Transportes, SCT), a federal executive cabinet branch, the system includes modern highways, a well-connected bus network, railways primarily used for freight, and a network of domestic and international airports.
These infrastructures facilitate trade, tourism, and domestic travel, connecting México's diverse regions. However, challenges such as maintenance, traffic congestion, and safety concerns persist, particularly in urban centers, highlighting ongoing efforts to improve and expand the country's transportation capabilities.
