Just in time for year-end travel, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has launched a “Border Wait Time” app for use at land ports of entry. This free app should help facilitate the border-crossing process by providing estimated wait times and open lane status reports for the land ports of entry nearest to the user’s location. The user will then be able to select the best place to cross the border into the country at any given time. Kudos to CBP.
