AmericaJR’s Gloria and Jerome Rzucidlo recently visited Delrey Park near the new Gordie Howe International Bridge, which is being built over the Detroit River. It will connect southwest Detroit with Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Excitement is building for the Gordie Howe International Bridge project team as they begin the final steps to connect the bridge deck over the Detroit River. With 26 metres/85 feet remaining, the same width as an official NHL rink, it is anticipated that the two sides will connect at the end of June. Even though it will appear the bridge is completed, there is still plenty of work remaining before the bridge opens in fall 2025. Crews will stress stay cables and install electrical, fire suppression and drainage systems, barriers, signage, lighting, deck paving, and pavement markings and complete the multi-use path.
