Smart Border as a Part of Smart and Resilient El Paso
Each city has its distinctive features that need to be considered when designing a smart concept. Typically, these features include geography, climate or historical development. This paper shows the example of El Paso – Ciudad Juárez bi-national metropolitan area divided by an artificial (administrative) boundary, in this case national border, yet there is a significant mobility of people and goods between these two cities. System approach is applied on the border itself and the surrounding boundary area. The boundary functions are defined followed by a case study of the El Paso – Ciudad Juárez bi-national metropolitan area with focus on cross border road bridges and rail infrastructure. A high-level smart border concept is outlined including a smart border crossing system.
