Bridge from Michigan to Canada set for weekly closures this summer

This summer, the bridge connecting Michigan and Canada will face periodic closures, with only one lane open for traffic from Monday to Thursday until late August. Temporary signals will manage the alternating traffic flow to ensure safety and minimize disruptions. This move is part of extensive maintenance work aimed at extending the bridge's lifespan, which is crucial given its vital role in cross-border trade and daily commutes for thousands of drivers. These closures will likely cause some inconvenience but are necessary to prevent more serious structural issues down the road.
