South Texas Regional Airport

One of only two air-rail intermodal facilities in Texas, the South Texas Regional Airport and Intermodal Park is a uniquely powerful asset for manufacturing and distribution operations, promising lower costs plus greater speed, ease and flexibility.

A Game-Changing Vision 

Driven by a transformative vision of an intermodal future, the City of Hondo and the Hondo Economic Development Corporation undertook the initiative to support the construction of the new facilities in 2006. Since then, the park has attracted tens of millions of dollars in private investment and has served multiple sectors, providing transloading services for food grade materials and liquids such as high fructose syrup, automotive ethanol and fracture sand, as well as providing oil collection and shipping services.

A State-of-the-Art Rail Park

• 176-acre rail park facility

• 85,000’ of heavy-gauge steel and loop track 

• Service by two Class I rail lines, UP and BNSF, which serve multiple major Mexican gateways, including Eagle Pass and the Port of Laredo, while also providing blanket cross-continental rail service west of the Mississippi

• Class III Hondo Railway shortline service coordinating and connecting to Class I lines

• Just .5 miles from U.S. Highway 90, with additional access to I-35, I-10 and I-37

• 16 tracts at the Airport Intermodal Park

• Approximately 1,400 acres at the Airport Industrial Park

The South Texas Regional Airport offers four runways and apron space to handle aircraft ranging from a Cessna to a Boeing 737.

Created with vision and intent, Hondo’s powerful intermodal advantages offer an opportunity custom built to support a prosperous future for business and industry.
