Remote yard monitoring in Eagle Pass

Local and live

On US 277 at the Piedras Negras bridges

Eagle Pass crosses into Piedras Negras, Mexico, on two international bridges plus a rail bridge that carries 15 to 18 freight trains a day. Trade through the port grew fast: combined trade reached $37.14 billion in 2023, and Q1 2024 alone brought in $11.37 billion, up 22 percent from the same period a year earlier, with commercial vehicles, passenger vehicles and auto parts among the top commodities crossing. US Highways 277 and 57 and Farm-to-Market Road 481 carry that freight away from the bridges, and a second bridge, the Puerto Verde Global Trade Bridge, has been proposed to add capacity.

FBI figures for 2024 count 105 burglaries in Eagle Pass, about 371 per 100,000 residents, and 60 motor vehicle thefts, about 212 per 100,000 residents. For yards holding trailers or vehicles waiting to cross, an empty lot once the bridge traffic stops for the night carries that same exposure.

An Eagle Pass yard doesn't have to sit unwatched through the hours between one day's trucks and the next. Sigma puts agents on every camera at once, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and AI-based detection catches anyone moving through the site after hours. The agent verifies it on live video, gives a live, instant talk-down over the site's speakers, and escalates to police and your own contacts, with a video clip and written report to follow.
