BORDER WIZARD

The Federal Highway Administration's Office of Freight Management and Operations, in cooperation with the Border Station Partnership Council (BSPC), has developed an analytical tool to assist in the coordination of improvements to border ports of entry. The Border Crossing Simulation Model (Border Wizard) is now in use. Border Wizard can simulate all federal inspection activities at any land border station to determine infrastructure, facility, and operational needs to ensure safe and secure operations. This article describes Border Wizard and its uses.
