Presidio Ojinaga Border Crossing Wait times & FAQ’s

The Presidio port of entry stands at the Presidio-Ojinaga bridge. The original bridge was made of wood and dated to the 1900s. There are plans to improve the current border by expanding the number of lanes on the Ojinaga bridge, although a date has not been set for the work. Funding has now been secured for the project, so it is hoped that the small two-lane bridge will soon have double the capacity.
