Port and crane equipment →Prices riseCrane Rail and Quayside Infrastructure
The source explicitly says Mexico plans to modernize port infrastructure, which directly raises demand for quayside infrastructure and rail at upgraded ports.

Mexico says the corridor will modernize port infrastructure and related facilities, which should lift demand for ship-to-shore cranes at the corridor's ports.

Crane Rail and Quayside Infrastructure →Prices riseA dry-canal reroute would likely raise demand for cargo-handling and terminal infrastructure, making crane-rail and quayside inputs more expensive for port and crane equipment.

A proposed dry-canal corridor would compete with waterborne cargo routing, likely softening demand and rates for bulk vessel freight used to move steel-making inputs.

A dry-canal land corridor is a substitute cargo route that can ease logistics bottlenecks, making grain trading and shipping more available with less transit friction.
Hop 3
voestalpine AG →Prices riseCrane Rail and Quayside Infrastructure
If cargo is rerouted toward a dry land corridor, demand for crane-rail and quayside buildout can rise, so voestalpine would need more of this 30% share input and its price would likely firm.
