- wny_pat1ExplorerAs long as it isn't a Canadian holiday, you shouldn't have any problems. But if it is a holiday, all bets are off. And often the Queenston - Lewiston Bridge is quicker is quicker than the Peace Bridge/. But the last I was up there, the I-190 north of Grand Island was quite rough.

What are the usual wait time to get a Class A thru the gates from Canada to the US about the first of May?
We cross into the US a lot in this area and in my experience peace bridge is almost always better than queenston. Wait times do vary but if you time the crossing for a non-holiday off-peak time the wait times will likely be less than 10 minutes. - Jack_Diane_FreeExplorerCrossed about 8:30 am last Friday on way to Florida. About 10 mins if that helps. Weekends will be longer.
- Beverley_KenExplorerAs others have said, too many variables. The worst we have seen was late evening, 8pm or so on the last day of a weekend or long weekend, when Canadians are returning from our cross border shopping trips. It took three hours one long weekend about 3 years ago. but could be as little as a couple of minutes.
If crossing on a weekend, try for earlier in the day before Canadians start returning home from there weekly shopping trips.
Beverley and Ken - loulou57ExplorerAs Dutch said, the time will vary.
The time wait could be 10 minutes or 10 hours. It all depends on what the day presents.
On our May 24 weekend many Canadians cross the borders into the US. It is considered the first camping weekend of the year. Even though many of the may 24 weekends have had snow, LOL - Dutch_12078Explorer IIBorder crossing wait times vary quite a bit depending on the day of the week, the time of the day, the time of the year, and the whims of nature. The link below will give you the current conditions as you get near your crossing point:
