About

About this crossing

The Colombia Solidarity bridge crosses the Rio Grande northwest of Nuevo Laredo, linking Monterrey's industrial corridor with the highway into Laredo. Born as an alternate trade route, that is exactly how it works: large cargo facilities with Standard and FAST lanes, plus General, Ready Lane and SENTRI vehicle lanes that usually run lighter than the downtown bridges. Coming from Nuevo León, it skips the Nuevo Laredo urban grid entirely.
