New Bridge Hits the Ground Running | Detroit News

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

The new Gordie Howe International Bridge officially opened July 27th, already handling over 41,000 vehicles in its first five days—with nearly equal numbers of U.S. and Canadian drivers—and more than 4,100 trucks, making it a major new trade and travel artery between Detroit and Windsor. At just $5.75 USD or $8 CAD for cars, plus automated lanes and free access for walkers and bikers, the bridge offers efficient, affordable crossings. Already outpacing expectations compared to the Ambassador Bridge and Tunnel combined, this third crossing is reshaping cross-border traffic—and the numbers are only going up.
