CALEXICO, Calif. (KYMA) – U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has announced new safety measures and procedures in regards to the use of bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, and other personal transportation devices at the Calexico Port of Entry.
Starting next Monday, bicycles, e-bike, scooters and similar modes of transportation not authorized for use on public roads will no longer be allowed to enter the U.S. through vehicle inspection lanes, CBP says.
CBP says this is to enhance safety for both travelers and CBP officers as well as to reduce the risk of crashes in high traffic vehicle processing areas.
However, those who travel using the devices will still be able to enter the U.S. through the pedestrian processing areas, “where they can be safely screened and processed.”
In addition, CBP is asking all travelers to plan accordingly, allow additional time for crossing the border and familiarize themselves with the new procedures before they arrive at the Calexico Port of Entry.
