Seasons

28 bridges cross the notorious Rio Grande between Texas and Mexico, providing a gateway for legitimate goods and a lucrative pipeline for illegal contraband, weapons and drugs. Focus is on the South Texas border, primarily the Laredo ports of entry (Gateway to the Americas, Juárez–Lincoln, World Trade, Colombia–Solidarity and the Laredo Rail Bridge), with additional operations at the Brownsville–Matamoros and Hidalgo–Reynosa crossings.
