With the expected end of the Centers for Disease Control’s temporary Title 42 public order, at 11:59 p.m. EDT on May 11, land ports of entry along the U.S.-Mexico border may experience delays and disruptions.  Title 42 is the public health order that applies to migrants without proper travel documents.  U.S. citizens should plan for longer-than-usual wait times, possible closures, and other potential disruptions to travel at land ports of entry.

Actions to Take:

• Monitor local media for the latest updates on traffic delays and in case of emergency call 911.
• Avoid crowds and demonstrations.
• Make sure your vehicle is in good working condition and has adequate fuel for long traffic delays.
