The Coalition for America's Gateways and Trade Corridors (CAGTC) is a US interest group for transport.
It is composed of over forty representative organizations, including motor carriers, railroads, ports, engineering firms, and freight corridors that have come together to improve national freight efficiency. CAGTC was established in 2001 to bring national attention to the need to expand U.S. freight transportation capabilities and to work toward solutions for this national challenge.[1]
CAGTC plays a key role in developing consensus among members of Congress for federal investment policy that supports "intermodal connectors", "trade corridors" and "gateway access", and that provides for increases in the authorization and appropriations levels for freight and goods movement-related projects.[2][3] The purpose of CAGTC is to raise public recognition and Congressional awareness of this need and to promote funding in federal legislation for trade corridors and gateways.[4]
