More checkpoints on US-Mexico border

Issue No. 5 | March 01-15, 2012

The US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials are considering introducing more unmanned checkpoints at ports of entry along the US-Mexico border. The CBP officials will be introducing more unmanned checkpoints at ports of entry along the US-Mexico border.

CBP already has a few automated checkpoints along the northern border, but only recently did it launch its first unstaffed entry point in Big Bend National Park, a remote portion of southwest Texas. If successful, CBP could roll out more robotic checkpoints in desolate stretches of the southern border.

The system will cost an estimated $1.6 million for the first year to install and the National Park Service projects that between 15,000 and 20,000 people will use the border crossing in its first year. In comparison, the port of entry at El Paso processes between 40,000 and 85,000 people a day.
