LOGISTICS & TRANSPORTATION
At the center of a continent-spanning corridor
The Dumas region is readily connected to the global marketplace with multi-directional rail and highway infrastructure. Its strategic central U.S. location is ideal for serving as a transportation and distribution center to all points — whether you need to move product regionally, nationally, or globally.
Located just 45 minutes north of Interstate 40 along US 287 and US 87, Dumas sits at the heart of the Ports-to-Plains Trade Corridor — the fastest growing trade corridor in the United States — a multimodal system linking Mexico through West Texas, Colorado, and into Canada and the Pacific Northwest.

HIGHWAY INFRASTRUCTURE
Four-lane access in every direction
Dumas is served by two major four-lane US highways — US 287 running north-south and US 87 running diagonally — both part of the Ports-to-Plains Trade Corridor. The corridor is a multi-state, international effort connecting Mexico through West Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, and into Canada via the Theodore Roosevelt Expressway.
Interstate 40, the major east-west transcontinental route, is just 45 minutes south of Dumas. US 54, another significant east-west corridor, runs just 30 miles to the north — giving Dumas rare four-directional highway access from a single location.
