Ciudad Juárez Border Crossings

Ciudad Juárez has the largest network of international bridges into El Paso. The Bridge of the Americas (the toll-free "Puente Libre") and the Paso del Norte bridge — the signature pedestrian crossing — drop into downtown El Paso; the Ysleta-Zaragoza bridge serves the industrial east; and Santa Teresa, on the New Mexico segment, is the system's modern relief valve. Stanton (commuter lane), Tornillo-Guadalupe and Fort Hancock round it out. Here you see each one's live wait time with General, Ready Lane and SENTRI lanes; open any bridge for its best hour of the day.
