The NAFTA superhighway is a term sometimes used to refer to certain existing and proposed highways.[1][2][3] The beliefs associated with this appellation have been characterized as a part of theories of a conspiracy to undermine U.S. sovereignty.[4][5][6]
Those highways part of the NASCO Corridor, including Interstate 35, Interstate 29, and Interstate 94, along the CANAMEX Corridor are often referenced among the existing highways. The term is also sometimes used to describe planned, or proposed highways and supercorridors which connect the road systems of the three nations of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) trade bloc (Canada, Mexico, and the United States).
Proposed or planned highways and supercorridors referred to as NAFTA superhighways include the Trans-Texas Corridor, the International Mid-Continent Trade Corridor and the proposed I-69 highway extension to Mexico through Texas.
Organizations supporting supercorridors include the North American SuperCorridor Coalition and the North American Forum on Integration.
