Border wall construction underway in the Borderland
EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- Construction is currently underway for a seven-mile stretch of the border wall here in the Borderland.
U.S. Border Patrol Chief Michael W. Banks says that crews have already installed 100 feet of steel in a single day.
Banks says the 30-foot panels will continue to be put up fast.
Adding more of the border wall is part of Texas' and the federal government's plans to strengthen border security, officials say.
