Abstract

The City of El Paso, TX has access to six ports of entry (POE) between the United States and Mexico in the region. Two of the four POEs within the El Paso City limits allow access to commerical traffic. The objective of this thesis is to see the effect on the El Paso transportation network of shifting all commercial traffic from Bridge of the Americas (BOTA) to Ysleta-Zaragoza and Santa Teresa POEs. DynusT, a dynamic routing traffic simulation tool, was used to make this determination.
