Despite the holiday season, bridge traffic continues to sharply decline. In 2025, there were 845,713 one-way crossings, a 23.8% decrease from 2024. Even Christmas travel couldn't boost vehicle numbers across the International Bridge. According to the International Bridge Administration, December saw 57,308 one-way crossings, a 27% drop from the previous month. The full stats for December show a 33.7% decrease in full-fare passenger cars, a 23.8% decrease in commuter fare, a 25% decrease in car-pulling trailers, and a 9.3% decrease in commercial trucks. Since 1962, the bridge has processed 106.8 million crossings. But here's where it gets controversial: some argue that the decline in traffic could be due to economic factors or changing travel habits. What do you think? Is it a sign of a larger trend, or are there other factors at play? Share your thoughts in the comments!
