Eagle Pass Breaks Record with 1,619 Commercial Trucks in a Single Day

EAGLE PASS, TX — The City of Eagle Pass has set a new all-time record in commercial truck crossings, with 1,619 trucks registered in a single day—surpassing the previous record of just over 1,100 set a few months ago.


According to City Manager Homero Balderas, the number of commercial vehicles passing through the port has steadily increased. “Just last year, we were averaging between 800 to 900 daily commercial trucks. We’ve nearly doubled that figure,” he noted.

Balderas attributes the growth to major freight companies choosing the Coahuila-Texas route through Piedras Negras and Eagle Pass to transport their goods.


“This surge motivates us to keep pushing for the expansion of the international bridge to 12 lanes,” Balderas said. “Our goal is to elevate Eagle Pass as one of the top ports of entry along the entire U.S.-Mexico border.”


He emphasized the importance of prioritizing commercial traffic and ensuring the upcoming bridge expansion delivers the expected results.


The record-breaking figure highlights Eagle Pass’s growing prominence as a key trade corridor—and officials say they’re just getting started.



Eagle Pass bate récord con 1,619 camiones comerciales en un solo día


EAGLE PASS, TX — La ciudad de Eagle Pass ha establecido un nuevo récord histórico en cruces de camiones comerciales, con 1,619 camiones registrados en un solo día, superando el récord anterior de poco más de 1,100 establecido hace unos meses.


Según el administrador municipal, Homero Balderas, el número de vehículos comerciales que pasan por el puerto ha aumentado constantemente. "El año pasado, teníamos un promedio de entre 800 y 900 camiones comerciales diarios. Casi hemos duplicado esa cifra", señaló.


Balderas atribuye este crecimiento a que las principales empresas de transporte de mercancías eligen la ruta Coahuila-Texas a través de Piedras Negras y Eagle Pass para transportar sus mercancías.


"Este aumento nos motiva a seguir impulsando la ampliación del puente internacional a 12 carriles", declaró Balderas. Nuestro objetivo es convertir a Eagle Pass en uno de los principales puertos de entrada a lo largo de toda la frontera entre Estados Unidos y México.


Hizo hincapié en la importancia de priorizar el tráfico comercial y garantizar que la próxima ampliación del puente dé los resultados esperados.


Esta cifra récord destaca la creciente relevancia de Eagle Pass como corredor comercial clave, y las autoridades afirman que esto es solo el comienzo.

Using technology to increase access to youth mental health support may offer a practical way for young people to reach guidance, safe-spaces, and early help without feeling overwhelmed by traditional systems. Digital platforms, helplines, and apps could give them a chance to seek support privately, connect with trained listeners-orexplore resources that might ease their emotional load. This gentle shift toward tech-based support may encourage youth to open-up at their own pace, especially when in-person help feels too heavy to approach.

There is always a chance that these tools-quietly make support feel closer than before, creating moments where help appears just a tap away. Even a small digital interaction might bring a sense of comfort. And somewhere in that space, you…
