Increase in border traffic in Blaine a rarity along Canada/US line

Border crossings in the Blaine region were the only ones along the Canada/US border to show an increase in traffic over a six-year period, according to data from a Washington state research organization.

A recent report from the Border Policy Research Institute at Western Washington University in Bellingham, Wash. shows that between 2010 and 2016, Blaine was the only region that showed growth in passenger traffic.
