HIDALGO – Concrete barriers at the Hidalgo International Bridge have led to some lane closures.
Many people crossing say there are concrete barriers topped with what looks like concertina wire.
Luis Vargas says he crosses from Reynosa once or twice a week.
“On the way back, for the vehicle lines, there is only one lane open. It’s really complicated for drivers to cross over,” says Vargas.
Customs and Border Protection tell us the roadblocks are called jersey barriers.
Only one lane is open for the time being; all four inspection lanes are open.
Vargas tells us he only saw two immigrants waiting at the bridge and a full house inside the office.
