Paso Del Norte Bridge |
Description
The four lanes of this bridge are only used for northbound, noncommercial,
passenger vehicles. It was rebuilt in 1967 as part of the Chamizal Treaty.
The crossing is also known locally as
Paso del Norte Bridge, Santa Fe Street Bridge, Puente Benito Juárez,
Puente Paso del Norte and Puente Juárez-Santa Fe.
More information is available from the
City of El
Paso.
Identified Needs This bridge receives a high number of pedestrians
and passenger vehicles. Identified needs include a better flow of traffic approaching and leaving the bridge.
Safety should also be improved as many pedestrians use this bridge to access bus
stations near the port of entry.
Recommendations At the end of the study, improvements will be recommended based upon identified needs of the border crossings.
