DETROIT (WKZO AM/FM) –The new Gordie Howe Bridge is breaking records before the first shovel of dirt has been turned.
No we aren’t talking about the record amount of litigation that has been thrown up to try and derail the project by the billionaire owner of the Ambassador Bridge.
Andre Juneau, Interim CEO of the Windsor Detroit Bridge Authority, says the design they have chosen will be the longest of its kind in North America with twin spans that will be as tall as the Renaissance Center.
They have announced they have chosen a consortium called “Bridging North America” to manage the construction and operation of the span, which will connect major highways in Detroit, to major highways in Windsor.
