Border Patrol is stepping up highway checkpoints in San Diego, shifting from migrant processing to proactive law enforcement after a dramatic drop in crossings — now just 50K apprehensions vs. 324K last year. Agents are patrolling 60 miles of coastline and intercepting smugglers, drugs, and weapons, with Route 94’s aging checkpoint poised for federal upgrades. Strategically placed on smuggling corridors, these operations are reshaping cartel tactics — and locals mostly support the move, even if they’d like quicker traffic flow.
