In this Deep Dive, we break down the facts behind Tijuana’s brand-new Sentry access point on Calle Segunda, opening mid-November. Amid confusion and online rumors, the truth is clear: the original Padre Kino gate remains open, while this new downtown entry will ease congestion for drivers from Playas and Rosarito. With 600,000 vehicles per month clogging both the Sentry and Ready Lanes, this “relief valve” could be a game changer—if it works in sync with CBP’s new pilot program on the U.S. side. We unpack what’s changing, what’s not, and how both sides of the border are learning to cooperate smarter. 🛣️🚦🤝
