Matamoros Border Crossings
Matamoros crosses into Brownsville over four bridges at the eastern end of the border. The Gateway bridge ("Puente Nuevo") is the downtown pedestrian crossing; the Veterans bridge (Los Tomates) is the modern port that concentrates cars and all commercial cargo on Standard and FAST lanes; the historic B&M bridge remains the locals' quiet shortcut; and Los Indios, to the west, is the uncrowded option. Here you see each one's live wait time to choose between downtown, the bypass or cargo; open any bridge for its hourly pattern and the best window of the day.
