This paper combines a Queues and Waiting in Line Model and an Input-Output Model. The objective is to evaluate the economic impact on each northern Mexican border entity due to a 10-minute reduction in the waiting time for cargo transportation in the customs system. This is due to the fact that traffic congestion of commercial vehicles with export goods at border crossing ports is a critical problem for the competitiveness and economic integration of Mexico and the United States. The results show that Total Gross Production increases in Baja California by 1.6%, Sonora by 1.2%, Chihuahua by 1.5%, Coahuila by 1.1%, Nuevo Leon by 0.7%, and Tamaulipas by 1.8%.
