The United States began to erect a fence along its western section of the state border with Canada, CTV News reports.

The fence, which is being erected along the Canadian-American border near Vancouver, aims to prevent vehicles from illegally crossing the border. It is not yet known how long the new fence will be and what time will it take to erect it.

To Acting Chief Patrol Agent Tony Holladay this area has been used by transnational criminal organizations to smuggle drugs and people.

“Strengthening this section of the border reduces the risk of these dangerous criminal activities,” Tony Holladay said.
