Cameron County granted Presidential Permit to own, operate Brownsville and Matamoros Bridge
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Cameron County has been granted a Presidential Permit allowing it to own, operate, and maintain the Brownsville & Matamoros Bridge. This approval follows a unanimous decision by the Cameron County Commissioners' Court on October 7, 2025, to purchase Union Pacific Railroad's full ownership stake in the bridge company, resulting in a 50% ownership interest for the county. Plans for the bridge include investments in infrastructure and operational enhancements, such as upgraded toll collection systems and improved customs processing. Once finalized, Cameron County will manage four international bridges.
