About
About this crossing
The Whirlpool Rapids Bridge, just downstream from Niagara Falls, is a NEXUS-only crossing: only cars whose occupants hold the trusted- traveler membership may use it, which makes it the best-kept secret of the Niagara system. For members it often means a minutes-long wait while the Rainbow Bridge drowns in tourists. CBP reports it separately, and this page shows its typical hour-by-hour behavior.
