With the declaration of the national emergency at the Southern Border, billions of dollars have been reallocated to fund construction for barriers of all kinds in needed areas. Just recently, the Department of Homeland Security has requested the assistance of the Defense Department to construct approximately 218 miles of new or replacement barriers. In its request, it states that the "DHS requests that DoD assist in the execution of projects, within the Project Areas set forth below, to: (1) replace existing vehicle barriers or dilapidated pedestrian fencing with new pedestrian fencing; (2) construct roads; and (3) install lighting,". These plans will replace old fences and barriers that cannot block both cars and pedestrians, create new roads along the border, and install lighting to see at night.
