The Rio Grande City-Camargo International Bridge is open for both passenger vehicles and pedestrians.

If you are driving over the bridge in a car or a pickup, then the toll is $3.50. Trucks are charged based on the number of axles, with the fees ranging from $7.50 to $22.

The crossing at Rio Grande City opes at 7 am and closes at midnight. It is open every day of the year. When the border first opens, you can expect to be waiting around 25 minutes to cross. After this rush, the wait drops to around 10 minutes.

The duty-free store that is just down the road from the bridge doesn’t open on Sundays. The rest of the week it is open 9 am – 6 pm.

To cross over a land border between Mexico and the United States you need to show appropriate identification. While it is not as easy to cross the border as it was in the past, there are still more acceptable IDs then there are if you are flying across the border. The most obvious forms of acceptable ID are a passport, a PASS card (which some frequent travelers may have), and an Enhanced Driver’s License. Other options when crossing the land border are any trusted traveler cards - NEXUS, SENTRI, or FAST. Enhanced tribal cards, Native American tribal photo cards, and Form I-872 American Indian Cards are all accepted as ID to cross the border. Military personal can cross with their military ID and travel orders.
