OTAY MESA (CNS) - U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials announced they will conduct a drill on Wednesday at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry that could cause brief delays for travelers at the border.
The training, which will consist of a "large-scale operational readiness exercise" that will be visible to drivers, was scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. and last about 15 minutes, according to a statement from CBP.
Traffic will be stopped for the duration of the drill.
