Stanton-Lerdo

The Stanton-Lerdo Bridge is located in El Paso, Texas, at 1001 S. Stanton on the U.S. side and Lerdo Ave. on the Mexican side. It is a four-lane bridge, with three lanes dedicated to southbound privately owned vehicles (POVs) and other non-commercial traffic, only southbound pedestrian traffic and one northbound SENTRI lane, also known as a dedicated commuter lane (DCL). The bridge is 880 feet in length.

The Stanton-Lerdo bridge is owned by the City of El Paso in the U.S. side and Government of México in the Mexican side. It was completed in 1967. For northbound traffic the bridge is open from 6:00 AM – 12:00 am on weekdays, and 8:00 AM – 12:00 am Saturdays and Sundays. For southbound traffic, the Stanton-Lerdo Bridge has a maximum of four personal vehicle toll booths for manned or unmanned lanes. All southbound lanes are compatible with E-Fast Pass (Automatic Vehicle Identification – AVI) tags.

A bridge has existed at this location since approximately 1896, and U.S. Customs services began soon afterward. The bridge was rebuilt several times, periodically damaged by floods. Since its reconstruction in 1967 as part of the Chamizal Treaty between the US and Mexico, the Stanton-Lerdo bridge was dedicated to southbound traffic. In 1998, U.S. Customs Service (CBP) chose this bridge as the best location to set up a dedicated commuter lane to relieve cross-border congestion in the busy El Paso-Ciudad Juarez metroplex, that was opened to pre-enrolled northbound traffic in September 1999.
