The Eagle Pass International Bridge is a vital crossing point between the United States and Mexico, connecting the cities of Eagle Pass, Texas, and Piedras Negras, Coahuila. This bridge facilitates trade and travel, serving as a key route for both commercial and personal vehicles. Opened in 1950, the bridge spans the Rio Grande River, allowing for easy access between the two countries. It plays an essential role in the local economy, supporting cross-border commerce and tourism, while also providing a pathway for cultural exchange between the communities on either side.
