The Anzalduas Port of Entry opened on December 15, 2009 with the completion of the Anzalduas International Bridge. The bridge is over three miles long and cost over $28 million to build.[1] It was designed to divert traffic from the congested Hidalgo Texas Port of Entry.
The presidential permit under which the bridge was constructed prohibits commercial traffic from using it until 2015, or when the Hidalgo Port of Entry averages more than 15,000 commercial entries per week.[2] The bridge has a dedicated commuter lane (SENTRI).
