Otay Mesa Commercial is the cargo port of the Tijuana–San Diego system: the bulk of Baja California's border trade crosses here, from maquiladora exports to fresh produce. CBP reports its Standard and FAST truck lanes, and the commercial queue keeps its own pattern — very different from the passenger side — tied to customs-yard schedules and carriers' appointment windows. This page shows that cargo wait live, along with its typical hour-by-hour behavior.
