El Paso is a pioneer when it comes to commuting to and from Mexico. Currently 18,000 people enjoy the benefits of the Dedicated Commuter Lane (DCL). It is a high-efficient, low-risk commuter lane that enables motorists to commute across the border into the United States, in minutes. Efficient travel to and from El Paso and Juarez is now at its peak.

• Highly Efficient - Maximum wait times range from three minutes during the day, to 15 minutes during rush hour traffic. The system is so finely tuned, that it can allow more traffic to cross in the DCL in one hour then all other lanes combined!
  
• Low Risk - Acceptance for a DCL permit requires the applicant to go through a pre-selection process, in which a thorough background check is required. This ensures that only qualified applicants can utilize the DCL, keeping waiting times to a minimum.
  

A few requirements and application fees are required. For more information on enrollment of this program call (915) 872-3472. A DCL application can be found at the following link www.cbp.gov/linkhandler/cgov/toolbox/forms/823s.ctt/823s.pdf
