U.S.- MEXICO BORDER CONGESTION: INADEQUATE INFRASTRUCTURE OR POLICY?

This paper discusses the issue of whether or not border congestion exists at the U.S. - Mexican border. It seeks to answer the following questions. If congestion exists, how significant is it? Is this border congestion (if it exists) attributable to a lack of physical infrastructure or might it be due, in specific instances, to policies and procedures that the governments impose on border interchange?
