New Detroit- Canada Bridge Plans Underway
The city of Detroit has declared bankruptcy and since have been looking for ways to raise money and become a profitable, growing city again. The newest development is a new project that could boost the economy by providing jobs and helping with exports: a Detroit-Canada bridge. The privately owned Ambassador Bridge has existed for 84 years, but a new bridge would go a long way in helping trade and traffic grow while creating jobs and opportunities on both sides.
Supporters of the new bridge believe that an alternative for crossing borders is necessary for growth on both sides. This project, dubbed the New International Trade Crossing project, calls for Canada to contribute 2.3 billion of the total 3.5 billion needed to complete the project. Plans for the border to border bridge indicate that purchasing land would start in the summer, but construction wouldn’t start until 2016 and have an end date of 2020.
