Overall, when Trump says they've built 200 miles or more of border wall, what he's referring to is the replacement of older barriers with new fences, not 200 miles of barriers protecting the border for the first time. They pose "a formidable barrier, but it is not the high, thick masonry structure that most dictionaries term a 'wall'," the report said. The barriers constructed are very different from the pedestrian and vehicle fencing that they are replacing, said a January report from the Congressional Research Service. The Trump administration says it's built a new "border wall system" - steel-bollard fences, all-weather roads, lighting, cameras and other surveillance technology. The new barriers going up include 18- to 30-foot high steel bollard fences. "Landing mat" fencing - built using Vietnam War-era helicopter landing mats - has also been used. Customs and Border Protection over the years has used bollard, wire mesh, and chain link style fencing as barriers. And secondary barriers were raised for the first time along 17 miles. Twelve miles that had dilapidated secondary barriers now have new structures. What else? As of late June, 184 miles of dilapidated primary barriers were replaced with updated fences. Under Trump, that has increased by three miles, to 657. When Trump was campaigning to become president, the southwest border had 654 miles of primary barriers. (A third layer, or tertiary fence, is primarily used to delineate property lines rather than to deter illegal entries, said a 2017 report from the U.S. Secondary barriers, located behind the primary, are in place to stop pedestrians. The first impediment a migrant heading to the United States may face is known by officials as the primary barrier - fencing to stop people on foot and in vehicles. Some sections of the border have up to three layers of barriers that run parallel to the border. That hasn't increased during Trump's presidency. The U.S.-Mexico border spans approximately 2,000 miles, and about a third of it has barriers raised by the U.S government over decades. Mexico has not paid for any construction.
