The Smart Wall is a border security system that combines steel barriers, waterborne barriers, patrol roads, lights, cameras, and advanced detection technology to give Border Patrol agents the best tools in the world to stop illegal traffic.
In total, these projects will add 230 miles of Smart Wall and nearly 400 miles of new technology.
The technology additions will further secure existing wall in areas where the Biden Administration policies cancelled contracts to do so.
"CBP has also awarded various support contracts totaling more than $550 million, funded by OBBB, that will support the construction of Smart Wall, and will continue to award additional Smart Wall contracts."
