Pharr–Reynosa International Bridge

The Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge is a road crossing that spans the Rio Grande and links Texas with Tamaulipas. Four traffic lanes accommodate the steady flow of vehicles traveling between the two countries every day.

The bridge opened in 1994 and rapidly became a major hub for cross-border trade. It replaced older routes and has shaped the economic connection between both regions since it began operating.

The bridge serves as a daily meeting point where people from Pharr and Reynosa interact and conduct business together. On both sides, you can see how deeply this connection shapes the rhythms of local life and commerce.

Visitors should expect longer wait times, especially during peak crossing hours. Planning your trip for early morning or evening provides a smoother experience with faster processing.

The bridge handles an enormous volume of fresh produce moving from Mexico into the United States. Specialized cooling facilities ensure that perishable goods stay fresh while being processed and inspected.
