WHY CONTINENTAL 1?

Continental 1 is the bi-national alliance of dynamic business, community and government leaders working to raise awareness and build support for the completion of the Continental 1 Corridor.

The Continental 1 Corridor is the 1,500-mile direct route from Toronto to Miami that will bring business growth and faster, safer travel. The completion of Continental 1 is within reach – only 269 miles in New York and Pennsylvania need to be completed for the Corridor to be a reality.

90% of results have been achieved in the last 10 years.

The Niagara Frontier alone carries 19% of the US/Canada trade. It is estimated that 600 jobs in Ontario and 800 jobs in NYS are dependent upon trade crossing between Canada and the US. The US/Canadian trade relationship is the largest bi-national trade relationship in the world. Canada’s US trade is three times larger than their trade with the rest of the world combined.
