The Noyes–Emerson East Border Crossing is a closed Canada–United States port of entry that formerly connected the communities of Noyes, Minnesota, and Emerson, Manitoba. On the American side, the crossing was connected by US Highway 75 (US 75) in Kittson County, while the Canadian side was connected by Provincial Trunk Highway 75 (PTH 75) in the Town of Emerson (now the Municipality of Emerson – Franklin). During the early and mid-20th century, it was one of the busiest road and rail border crossings west of the Great Lakes. The road crossing has been closed since 2006; all cross-border traffic is now diverted to the nearby Pembina–Emerson Border Crossing.
