Description: The Transportation Planning and Programming (TPP) Division of the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) maintains a point spatial dataset of bridge and border crossings that connect Texas with the Mexican States of Chihuahua, Coahuila, Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas. This dataset includes bridges, dam crossings and a ferry. The majority of these facilities are open and tolled, however some are not tolled or closed and others are proposed or may be currently under construction.The dataset spans the Texas-Mexico border, from the City of El Paso, Texas southeast to the City of Brownsville, Texas which expands over 1,200 miles.This dataset is based on the Texas-Mexico Border Crossings Study - Crossings which is available to the public on TxDOT's website: http://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/projects/studies/statewide/border-crossing/crossings.htmlThe main source for this study is the report, "Texas-Mexico International Bridges and Border Crossings: Existing and Proposed, published by TxDOT", which is also available to the public on TxDOT's website: http://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/forms-publications/publications/international-relations.htmlThe dataset published by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics produces a similar dataset, but does not include proposed and closed border crossings and Lake Amistad Dam which may have not reopened when BTS last reported on border crossings. Border crossing naming convention is very different between the 2 datasets and the attribute tables are very different as well.Date valid as of: 2013Publish Date: 2013 (most recently updated in November of 2013)Update Frequency: updated by the TPP-Data Management section as needed.
