New border crossing for trucks planned in Arizona

New border crossing for trucks planned in Arizona
8/19/08
Quote:
Truckers who cross the U.S.-Mexico border south of Yuma, AZ, will soon have access to a new roadway and a new commercial port of entry.
The Arizona Department of Transportation recently awarded a $43.2 million contract for the construction of a four-lane roadway that will allow commercial vehicles to bypass San Luis, AZ, on the way to and from the Mexican border.
The route, Arizona Highway 195, will link Interstate 8 in Yuma, AZ, to the new border crossing en route to Sonora State Highway 2 across the border at a point east of San Luis Rio Colorado in Mexico.

Levin said he did not know the status of any construction or access roads on the Mexican side of the new crossing
I bet America is going to fund the majority of that as well... Who was the contract given to on the American side? an American company? What about all the new x ray equipment and computer systems that will have to be installed? That price surly is not in the 42 million mentioned because it probably would 10-20 million just to set up a computer system and xray ext... what about the Mexican side far as the computer systems? America going to pay for that as well?

Don't get me wrong it is a great ideal to keep the trucks away from big cities but lets get realistic about who actually is paying for all this... Sure is not Mexico....
