PENA, Sergio. Cross-border Mobility, Planning, and Governance at the USA-Mexico Border: Processes and Outcomes. Gest. polít. pública [online]. 2021, vol.30, n.1, pp.1-30.  Epub June 04, 2021. ISSN 1405-1079.  https://doi.org/10.29265/gypp.v30i1.804.

The objective of this paper is to analyze the cross-border mobility planning processes and governance at the United States (USA)-Mexico border and what can be learned based on the outcomes of two recent international mobility projects. Two projects are analyzed: One is a scheme based on a traditional inter-governmental cooperation approach of an international bridge in Tornillo, Texas and Guadalupe, Chihuahua; the other is a public private partnership (PPP) to facilitate international border crossings at the Tijuana airport. The research uses a case study methodology. The main goal is to undertake a comparison of two governance models based on social network analysis in order to understand the role that specific network characteristics play on the policy strategy to achieve the goal of producing collective goods.

Keywords : International transport; boundaries; bridges; planning systems; transport planning.
