Is the San Ysidro PedWest crossing closed?
Regarding the San Ysidro PedWest crossing, I read:
- https://bwt.cbp.gov/details/09250407/PED (mirror) says "Current Wait: Lanes Closed" and "Hours of Operation: 24 hrs/day Date: 9/25/2020", and the graph displays and flat 0-minute waiting time throughout the day, which seems to indicate all lanes are closed hrs/day.
- https://goo.gl/maps/Vhv37YFhgAkqi3sb7 (mirror) says it is opened between 4 AM to 10 PM.
- https://www.10news.com/news/local-news/new-coronavirus-testing-side-opening-along-u-s-mexico-border (mirror) (published on 2020-08-09) seems to imply it was open by the time the article was published.
- https://www.newsbreak.com/california/san-diego/news/1541178199258/pedwest-crossing-temporarily-closed-as-part-of-changes-at-the-california-mexico-border (mirror) (published on 2020-04-04) says "U.S. Customs and Border Protection has made changes at ports of entry along the California-Mexico border, including the temporary closure of the PedWest pedestrian crossing, in response to decreases in traffic since the coronavirus-related restrictions to non-essential travel took place."
I am getting confused. Is the San Ysidro PedWest crossing currently closed? If so, when is it scheduled to reopen, and if not what are the hours of operations?
