The Logistics Park Phoenix project by BNSF is set to deliver major economic benefits to Arizona, including over 50,000 jobs annually, $2.5 billion in yearly labor income, and significant tax revenue for local communities. In addition to boosting the state’s economy, the project enhances freight rail infrastructure, which helps reduce truck traffic, lower fuel consumption, and cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 75%. BNSF frames the initiative as both a business investment and a sustainability effort that supports Arizona’s long-term growth.

BNSF has been a key part of Arizona’s transportation network for over a century and is advancing its long-term investment in the state through Logistics Park Phoenix, a multi-billion-dollar rail and logistics hub designed to support economic growth, strengthen supply chains, and generate revenue for education. As part of its commitment to community engagement, BNSF has requested a delay in the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors’ vote on its Comprehensive Plan Amendment until August 2025 to align with its rezoning application and allow for further collaboration with stakeholders.
