Nogales International this morning:
(I can't seem to find anything online, so I'll type in the main points)
"Relief may be on the way:
The State of Sonora has secured approximately $10 million in funding...for a project to modernize the Benjamin Hill checkpoint."
"Gov. Eduardo Bours...is scheduled to announce today that bidding is open for design and construction of the new high-tech inspection station."
"...work should be completed in about 240 days."

Nice news -- thanks for passing it on. Thing is... that relieves one major bottleneck, but what does it do for the one at Mariposa? Dunno.

I guess I looked on line too early, because it wasn't on their website yet! Here is a link with less popups:

Please note that these posts are dated in 2007. BH checkpoint is open or will be very shortly. I understand funding for an expansion of Maripopa crossing has been obtained but have not seen a timetable on construction.

Funny thing is, BH is open but the last time I went through (last week) the lineup of trucks was still long. My wife counted 90 trucks waiting.
