Gordie Howe International Bridge to Open July 27

The Gordie Howe International Bridge connecting Ontario to Michigan will open July 27, the federal government has confirmed.

Canada and Michigan agreed on Friday to open the bridge with the support of the United States government, according to a news release issued just after 7 p.m. by the Department of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities.

Commercial trade between the two cities primarily has been across the nearly century-old and privately-owned Ambassador Bridge, which is closer to downtown Detroit than the Gordie Howe Bridge.
