Cross Border Xpress
Cross Border Xpress (CBX),〔(Cross Border Xpress (CBX) website )〕 also referred to as the Tijuana Cross-border Terminal, is an airport terminal currently under construction. It is located in San Diego, California, with an access bridge connecting it to the Tijuana International Airport in Tijuana, Mexico. It is scheduled to open in December 2015.〔("Cross-border airport bridge to open in December", Sandra Dibble, San Diego ''Union-Tribune'', August 8, 2015 )〕 When open, it will be the world's first true binational airport passenger terminal. Unlike the EuroAirport Basel–Mulhouse–Freiburg, which is entirely in France although jointly administered with Switzerland, this terminal is physically located in the United States while serving the Tijuana airport. A pedestrian bridge will span the United States–Mexico border, connecting passenger terminals between the two countries. It was the creation of Ralph Nieders, who introduced the concept and infrastructure design in Mexico City and San Diego in 1990. The terminal, in the Otay Mesa neighborhood of San Diego, will allow passengers to check in on the U.S. side of the U.S.–Mexico border, cross a pedestrian/passenger bridge across the border, and catch their flights at the Tijuana International Airport. Passengers arriving in Tijuana will equally be able to cross the pedestrian/passenger bridge into the Otay Mesa passenger terminal, clear U.S. passport controls and U.S. Customs, and exit on the U.S. side.〔
The terminal building in Otay Mesa will serve only as a check-in and processing facility for departing and arriving passengers. It will have its own parking, check-in stations, and customs offices, but no gates or arrival facilities (thus functionally resembling Hong Kong International Airport's Terminal 2). The structural scheme is intended to allow greater access to flights out of the Tijuana Airport for both domestic and international air carriers.
Construction began on both the Tijuana and San Diego sides as of October 2013, with opening scheduled for December 2015.〔 The project will cost an estimated 78 million US dollars, funded by Mexican and U.S. private investors and Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico. Building E of Tijuana's Terminal 1 is currently undergoing restructuring, to support the new bridge structure on Mexican soil. The design of Terminal 2 is the work of late Mexican architect Ricardo Legorreta.
==Facilities==
Cross-border Express consists of 390-foot pedestrian bridge from Mexico to the U.S., and a facility on the U.S. side where passengers will enter and exit the bridge. U.S. customs and immigration inspection facilities will be located in the facility, as will a sports bar, coffee shop, sit-down restaurant, duty-free shop and VIP lounge. There will be almost 900 public parking spaces, and areas for passenger pick/up, taxis, and intercity and local buses.〔
