The Trump administration has begun constructing a border wall along a stretch of the Big Bend region in West Texas, marking the first major construction in an area of the U.S.-Mexico border, while the administration's plans have encountered strong local opposition.

川普政府已開始在德州西部大彎地區的一段修建邊境牆這標誌著在美墨邊境一個區域首次進行重大建設而該政府的計劃在當地遭遇了強烈反對。

The commencement of this construction marks a significant milestone in the administration's 46-billion-dollar plan.

這項建設的啟動,該政府460億美元計劃一個重要里程碑

The plan aims to fortify the border line with walls, barriers, roads, and technology, in order to fulfil a key campaign promise made by President Donald Trumpcompleting the border wall.

該計劃旨在沿邊境線以圍牆屏障道路和技術進行佈防以兌現總統唐納德·川普的一項關鍵競選承諾——完成邊境牆

This move comes at a time when Customs and Border Protection has stated that it has doubled the pace of building the border wall along the US-Mexico border.

此舉正值海關與邊境保護局表示其在美墨邊境修建邊境牆的速度已加倍

In a statement to reporters, Customs and Border Protection said that "installation of border wall panels is underway" in a 47-mile stretch of Hudspeth County in West Texas known as Big Bend 1.

海關與邊境保護局在給記者的一份聲明中表示,「邊境牆面板安裝正在進行中」,地點位於德州西部哈德斯佩斯縣一段47英里長被稱為大彎1號的區域。

The Big Bend area, which stretches about 500 miles from parts of Hudspeth County south of El Paso to Lake Amistad, is made up of five project areas in total.

大彎地區全長約500英里埃爾帕索以南哈德斯佩斯縣部分地區延伸至阿米斯塔德湖共由五個項目區組成

The agency stated that the first panels were erected on September 15.

該機構表示首批面板已於9月15日豎立完成

On a map published on the agency's website to present the latest updates on border wall construction across the entire southern border, a photograph shows a crane hoisting a 30-foot-tall steel wall panel into position while construction workers look on.

在該機構網站上發布用以呈現全南部邊境牆建設最新動態地圖中,一張照片顯示一台起重機正將一塊30英尺高的鋼製牆板吊裝就位,而建築工人們在一旁觀看

This new activity is unrelated to a border infrastructure project in the nearby Big Bend National Park.

這一新活動附近大彎國家公園的一項邊境基礎設施項目無關。

In that project, the government has temporarily suspended construction as a gesture of goodwill toward its opponents.

在該項目中政府為向反對者示好暫時中止建設

In the wider Big Bend region of Texas, Customs and Border Protection is facing united opposition from landowners, environmental groups, business owners, and ranchers.

在德州更廣闊的大彎地區海關與邊境保護局面臨土地所有者環保組織企業主牧場主聯合反對

They say this remote area is not a high-traffic zone for illegal immigration.

他們表示這個偏遠地區並非非法移民高流量區域

On Friday, activists stated that they would continue to oppose border infrastructure projects in the remaining sections of the Big Bend region, even though panel installation work is already underway.

活動人士週五表示,儘管面板安裝工程已在進行,他們仍將繼續反對大彎地區其餘地段的邊境基礎設施項目。

Clara Benson is one of the founders of the "No Big Bend Wall Coalition," which continues to oppose the plans of Customs and Border Protection.

克拉拉·本森「不要大彎牆聯盟」的創始人之一該聯盟持續反對海關與邊境保護局的計劃

In an interview on Friday, she said the organization keeps receiving reports that trucks are hauling supplies into remote areas along the Rio Grande, while contractors continue clearing sites for stockpiling materials.

週五受訪時表示該組織不斷接獲通報卡車將物資運入格蘭德河沿岸的偏遠地區承包商持續清理場地以供堆放物資

However, during an interview in Washington, D.C., she mentioned that she and others in the coalition were meeting with lawmakers there, and that the organization, along with other groups, would continue to oppose plans to build a wall across the entire region.

不過,她在華盛頓特區受訪時提到,她與聯盟中其他人正在當地會見立法者,而該組織及其他組織將繼續反對在整個地區築牆的計劃。

"Regardless of the final outcome, we will keep fighting for this land to the very end.

無論最終結果為何,我們都將持續為這片土地奮戰到底。

We will persist in the fight until the last moment," Benson said.

我們堅持戰鬥到最後一刻,」本森表示

"If you talk to people in West Texas, they will tell you that even if they build it, we will strive to make them tear it down.

你若與西德州的人交談他們會告訴你即便他們將其建成我們也會力爭讓他們將其拆除

Therefore, this struggle is not yet over."

因此這場抗爭尚未落幕。」

This news emerged as the government is accelerating a plan to fortify the entire border line, involving facilities such as 30-foot-tall steel bollard walls, barriers designed to stop vehicles from crossing, newly built patrol roads, and various technologies used to deter and detect migrants or smugglers crossing the border.

這一消息傳出之際,政府正加速推進一項計劃:沿整條邊境線佈防,所涉設施包括30英尺高的鋼製柱式牆、旨在阻止車輛越境的屏障、新闢的巡邏道路,以及各式用於威懾和偵測移民或走私者越境的技術。

U.S. Customs and Border Protection said that along the 2,000-mile border with Mexico, they are building an average of 12 miles of barrier each week, and recently reached a milestone: 200 miles of new barrier have been built since the second Trump administration took office.

海關與邊境保護局表示他們正在這條與墨西哥接壤長達2000英里的邊境上,平均每週修建12英里的屏障並於最近達到了一個里程碑自第二屆川普政府上任以來已修建了200英里的新屏障

The speed mentioned earlier this year by the agency's head, Rodney Scott, was only half of the average rate of 12 miles per week.

該機構負責人羅德尼·斯科特今年早些時候提及的速度,僅為每週12英里平均速度的一半。

The agency faces opposition from multiple parties, including environmental organizations, a small town concerned that the border wall will cause flooding in its area, Native Americans who say the construction disrupts sacred sites, and landowners who claim the construction will encroach on their land.

該機構面臨多方反對包括環保組織、一個擔心邊境牆會導致其地區發生洪水小鎮建設擾亂聖地美洲原住民,以及稱建設會侵犯其土地土地所有者

In Texas, most of the opposition has centred on the agency's plans for Big Bend National Park.

在德州多數反對意見集中於該機構大彎國家公園的規劃

Situated in the south-west of the state along the Rio Grande, the park draws visitors from all over the world.

該公園位於該州西南部沿格蘭德河而建吸引著來自世界各地的遊客

However, on the stretches of the river upstream and downstream of the park, most of the land is owned by private landowners, many of whom have consistently resisted government action.

然而,在公園外的河流上下游大部分土地歸私人地主所有其中許多人一直抵制政府的行動

Earlier this week, landowners, ranchers, and business owners in the Big Bend area, together with a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the region's landscape and heritage, jointly filed a lawsuit to block the government's plans.

本週稍早,大彎地區的土地所有者、牧場主與企業主,連同一個致力於保護該地區景觀及遺產的非營利組織,共同提起訴訟,以阻止政府的計劃。

Activists and landowners also appeared at county meetings, urging their elected officials not to cooperate with the wall contractors hired by Customs and Border Protection, and many landowners refused to allow government officials or contractors onto their land to conduct surveys.

活動人士土地所有者出現在縣會議上,促請民選官員不要海關與邊境保護局聘請的築牆承包商合作許多土地所有者拒絕允許政府官員或承包商進入其土地進行勘測
