Where can I find current and additional information related to border crossing?
One website dedicated to making it easier for everyone who has to cross the United States / Canadian border is http://www.ezbordercrossing.com/. At the site you will find a separate page for every port along the 4,000 mile border, congestion reports and a wealth of information on what is happening on the roads and border crossing points. Current border wait times, weather conditions, road conditions, traffic reports, port hours of operation, maps and contact information are some of the useful tools.
Canada’s Border Service Agency (www.cbsa.gc.ca) provides some current information including a webpage listing wait times: http://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/bwt-taf/menu-eng.html.
Many of the U.S. States and Canadian Provinces have current information available on their websites. Examples include:
Idaho: http://511.idaho.gov/
Michigan: http://michigan.gov/drive
Washington State: http://www.wsdot.com/traffic/
Minnesota: http://www.511mn.org/
Montana: http://www.mdt.mt.gov/travinfo/
