Garitas: Border Wait Times

Check border wait times before you leave. Compare lanes, save your favorite crossings, and explore hourly patterns to help plan a trip from Mexico or Canada into the United States.

TWO BORDERS, ONE LIST
• Explore Mexico–U.S. and Canada–U.S. crossings separately.
• Check 29 Canadian crossings and the available Mexican border ports.
• Keep every favorite in one Home order, regardless of country.
• Search, compare nearby crossings, and explore them on the map.

CLEAR TIMES BY LANE
• Check General, Ready Lane, SENTRI or NEXUS, pedestrian, and commercial waits.
• Spot the fastest lane and compare the current wait with the previous hour.
• If a source stops updating, Garitas avoids presenting it as live.

PLAN A BETTER TIME
• The 24-hour chart compares today with the typical pattern.
• During a holiday week, compare Now, Typical, and the same holiday last year. It is historical context, not a forecast.

TRAVEL FROM YOUR LOCATION
• In Passenger mode, see an estimated drive to a crossing’s access area where available, with precise location enabled and a matching physical country.
• Travel and border waits stay separate. Refresh the dated estimate when needed.
