The International footbridge, connecting
Laredo and Nuevo Laredo was completed in
1922, and is the finest on the Mexican border.
Many thousands of people pass over this bridge
daily, and numerous residents of Nuevo Laredo
and school children come to the American side
each day for work and study. Shortly after
completion, one of the worst floods in the his-
tory of the Rio Grande swept over the bridge,
but practically no damage was done.
