In the late 90s, a secondary pedestrian barrier was added to San Diego’s Border Infrastructure System to increase the U.S. Border Patrol’s ability to impede and deny illegal cross-border activity. In recent years, the wide availability of battery-powered hand tools have rendered the design used for this barrier vulnerable to quick breaching. DHS’s FY 2018 Enacted Appropriations provided funding to replace 14 miles of this legacy secondary pedestrian barrier with steel bollard wall.
