SAN LUIS, Ariz. (KYMA) – If anyone is planning to spend the Fourth of July weekend in Mexico, expect longer wait times when crossing the border.
At the San Luis Port of Entry Friday morning, the average wait time was almost an hour.
With the holiday weekend, it is expected to increase later in the day and into Saturday morning as many travelers are heading to El Golfo and Rocky Point.
Local Juan De La Hoya shared his experience waiting in line saying, “The problem is that we thought they were going to have more lanes open to cross into Mexico and they only have two. Same problem coming back, they said they were going to bring officers and it wasn’t true.”
If anyone is planning to cross the San Luis Port of Entry, expect delays this weekend as the Fourth of July celebrations will continue into Saturday afternoon.
