Plaque marking Trump's first 'border wall' section awaits his visit to Calexico

CALEXICO, Calif. — When President Donald Trump visits this border city Friday, he plans to tour a recently installed section of border fence. It's the first replacement project completed under his presidency, and a plaque welded to the bollards marked the occasion.

The plaque, installed more than six months ago when the work was completed, refers to the 2.25-mile-long barrier as the "the first section of President Trump's border wall."

Border officials in Calexico have noted that the project had been planned for years before Trump took office.
