7,500 Vehicles Cross the Gordie Howe International Bridge on Day 1 The Gordie Howe International Bridge saw a record breaking 7,500 vehicles cross its six lane span between Windsor and Detroit on its inaugural day.
This milestone marks more than just the physical completion of a new transportation artery; it represents years of planning, politicking, and perseverance by local residents, businesses, and governments.
Robert Pelowski, who has watched the bridge's construction since his elementary school days, crossed it on Monday with great personal significance.
