Gordie Howe Bridge Hits the Ground Running | Detroit News

from Detroit News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The Gordie Howe International Bridge is already making waves since its opening, with 37,000 cars crossing in just five days—18,900 Canadians heading home and 18,100 Americans heading north. Commercial traffic is strong too, with 4,100 big rigs already rolling through. That’s a major chunk of the action compared to nearby crossings like the Ambassador Bridge, which handled 52,700 trips over the same period. And it’s not just for vehicles—the pedestrian and bike path saw 3,400 users on opening day, something the Ambassador Bridge can’t offer. Early numbers show this bridge is quickly becoming a key player in cross-border travel. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
