Presidio Port of Entry Project Receives Final Approval

The State Department this week granted final approval for the Presidio, Texas, port of entry project to add one lane in both directions to accommodate 18-wheelers, the office of Rep. Will Hurd, R-Texas, announced (here). State granted a Presidential Permit, which is the last step before construction may begin. “These infrastructure improvements will create jobs, reduce arduous border wait times, and facilitate the flow of goods and services through the region,” Hurd said in a statement.
