New Tecate POE Ready Lane opening
With the aim of reducing waiting times, the Ministry of infrastructure and urban development (Sidue) announced the opening, as a pilot program, Ready
Lane lanes in the Tecate border crossing, which will operate only on Sundays, in the months of July and August. Photo: courtesy

Ken, The photo looks like the port of entry into Tecate.
Therefore, per the photo, the Ready Lane is running parallel to the POE?

My wait in the Ready lane at San Ysidro yesterday was 3.5 hours. Very depressing.

No se, amigo. This is the photo that was provided by Frontera.info. You need to take a photo of the Ready Lane and post it to this thread for an
update. Thanks!

I learned my lesson yesterday. I'll check the ready lane first and if it's long, I'll head back to the regular lanes. Never again. The first 3 hours
we were moving forward about a car length every 5 minutes. I couldn't believe the massive amount of wasted time and gas from the thousands of
vehicles. I have to get Sentri.......can't they make a lane where you can pay $20 and get a cross in 20 minutes?
Sorry to hijack your thread Ken, with my depressing trip report.

I bet it's typical for a Sunday. I had no option though....had to come home on Sunday. The regular lanes were backed up to 2nd street. I think the
word is out on the Ready lane. I will never come back on a Sunday ever again after 10am.
