Transportation

Highways

Ingleside's two main arteries, SH-361, and FM-1069 handle the existing industrial and commuter traffic. Both SH- 361 and FM-1069 meet up with U.S. 35. Corpus Christi and surrounding area commuters working in our industrial plants comprise a substantial amount of our traffic counts.

La Quinta & Jewell Fulton Channels

The La Quinta Ship Channel, a 45-foot-deep full-service ship channel, brings materials to our area industrial partners, who in turn, ship out manufactured goods to the world. And it is being enlarged. The Jewell Fulton Canal can presently handle smaller vessels.

The Port of Corpus Christi

Ingleside is proud to partner with the Port of Corpus Christi. This, the 3rd largest port in the U.S. by tonnage, is a huge economic engine for the entire area. Ingleside's industrial partners work closely with the Port to ensure the safe and efficient passage of ships in and out of Ingleside. Our association with the Port helps Ingleside remain an area of worldwide commerce.

Rail

Today, Union Pacific services our industry partners by bringing materials and sending out finished goods for sale worldwide. The Rail District committee oversees the expansion and other issues involving rail transit.
