The World Trade Bridge — Nuevo Laredo's Bridge 3 — is the most important cargo crossing on the entire US–Mexico border: a huge share of overland trade between the two countries rolls over its Standard and FAST lanes toward Interstate 35. It is trucks-only — no cars, no pedestrians — and its queue lives on the rhythm of customs brokers, freight yards and export seasons. This page shows that commercial wait live, hour by hour.
