About CBP Border Wait Times

Knowing land border wait times at the various ports of entry into the United States from both Canada and Mexico can aid the traveler in making an informed decision on when and where to cross the border. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection's Border Wait Time (BWT) app provides estimated wait times and open lane status 24/7 at ports of entry that process commercial vehicles, passenger vehicles, and pedestrians. The BWT app breaks down wait times at each crossing by lane type (Standard, Sentri, FAST, Ready Lane, Nexus, etc.). The BWT app is a free service provided by the Department of Homeland Security/U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

CBP Agency is very dishonest

The state department sells passport cards under the premise that it gives you access to ready lane but in reality CBP @ San Ysidro harms vulnerable pedestrian traffic by denying access to ready lanes by pedestrians and only offers it to automobiles. This targets the poor, handicapped and those of color. The data put into this app is dishonest just like the CBP Port Directors putting the false information into the app abusing the public’s trust in their institutions. Fraudulent reporting of ready lanes being open for pedestrians

By far worst app ever!

I downloaded the app & used it when traveling through the Presidio Bridge. The app stated 45 minutes to pass & it literally took 6 hours to pass. Unrealistic information is provided. The data that is used to provide the estimate is make believe! Don’t waste your time downloading this ridiculous useless app!
