Project Description The Calexico West Land Port of Entry (LPOE) is one of the busiest crossings on the southern border. The space required for modern inspection technologies is insufficient and the ability of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to accomplish its rapidly changing mission is seriously compromised by the existing facilities. When completed, the project will provide proper operational space for port operations, with reduced traffic congestion and a safe environment for port Customs and Border Protection (CBP) staff and the general public. The overall project involves the demolition of the current Pedestrian and Northbound POV inspection facility and the construction of a new Pedestrian Processing Facility.
