This week, Governor Rick Snyder and the Honorable Amarjeet Sohi, Canadian minister of Infrastructure and Communities, participated in an event marking the Michigan construction groundbreaking for the Gordie Howe International Bridge. The new six-lane, cable stayed international bridge will provide direct connectivity to existing highway networks in Windsor and Detroit. It will feature modern border processing infrastructure and the capacity to move goods and travelers efficiently through the corridor. “Governor Rick Snyder first announced his intention to pursue a second international crossing from Detroit a few years ago. Since that time he has worked with the U.S. Federal Government and the Canadian Government to see this come to fruition,” stated Matt Sowash of MLC.
