Mexico continues to be a hotspot for tourism — and a favorite among American travelers — and the Mexican government recently announced a massive spending program to continue the upward surge.
The extensive plans will focus on new infrastructure projects to upgrade roads, ports, telecommunications, water and energy facilities to sustain the country's growth in tourism and travel. All told, the government is expected to invest $315 billion (U.S.) to complete these projects by 2018.
Additionally, the private sector will partner to the extent of $8.6 billion in the construction and improvements of new and existing hotels as well . . .
