About this crossing
The B&M bridge crosses from downtown Brownsville into Matamoros, open 24 hours for cars and pedestrians; its 2026 federal permit also names bicycles among its modes.
Ownership in motion
A July 2026 federal permit authorizes Cameron County to own and operate B&M, and the county's announcement described the acquisition as still completing — a transition to watch, not a done deal, and not a reason to expect the county's toll table here yet.
The old rail bridge
Rail service over the old downtown B&M rail bridge ended in 2015 when West Rail opened; what became of the structure afterwards is not documented.
Quick answers
Is B&M open 24 hours?
Yes — around the clock for cars and pedestrians, with General, Ready and pedestrian waits reported separately. Gateway, also downtown, runs around the clock as well — an overnight crossing has two downtown choices — while Veterans closes at midnight.
How much is the B&M toll?
Not verifiable right now — the operator's website is a placeholder with no current tariff, and the county's rates don't apply while B&M remains a separate operator. Check at the booth.
Can pedestrians and bicycles use B&M?
Pedestrians, yes — around the clock, with a live walking wait reported. Bicycles are named in the bridge's 2026 federal permit, though no bicycle wait is published. For an RFID-document walking lane, Gateway nearby reports pedestrian Ready as well as General.
