The Four Falls Border Crossing is a one-way crossing between Fort Fairfield, Maine and Four Falls, New Brunswick. Traffic is permitted to enter Canada at this location, but people entering the United States face arrest.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Errant N.B. family shown no mercy at border )〕 ==History== This crossing opened in 1934, and traffic was permitted in both directions. In the late 1950s, The US and Canada mutually agreed to close this crossing due to limited usage, and both border stations were demolished. However, members of the nearby Aroostook Valley Country Club pressured the Canadian government to reopen the crossing during golf season, which it did. The US government refused to reopen its border station, but it allowed vehicles to enter as long as they proceeded only as far as the golf course, or if they traveled directly to an open US border inspection station to report for inspection. After the September 11 attacks, the United States changed its entry policies, requiring all travelers to enter at an open border inspection station. This meant that Canadian golfers could not enter the US via Brown Road,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Golfers' drive out of bounds, say U.S. officials )〕 and even Canadian residents who access their homes via Russell Road could not legally drive to their homes from Canada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=N.B. man in border dispute should have 'special rights': American neighbour )〕
