The City of Del Rio, Texas and Faneuil Inc unveiled a new Toll Plaza and Toll Collection System (TCS) for the Del Rio International Bridge at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The 620-meter long, four-lane bridge provides citizens with safe, efficient and the shortest crossing times when seeking entry into Mexico through Texas. It will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week.


Faneuil began installing the TCS during the City's construction of a new Toll Plaza and Administration Building near the bridge site in late February. The turnkey system interfaces with a pedestrian TCS and includes enhanced reporting, a digital video auditing system, and a new customer website for account management.

"This is more than just a grand opening for a toll booth plaza,” said City of Del Rio international bridge superintendent Margie Montez, “it represents the continued cross-border relations fostered by the City of Del Rio with Ciudad Acuna, Mexico.”
