"Any one of the components could be one large infrastructure project. Then you put them all together and it`s huge. It`s significant," said Marta Leardi-Anderson, executive director of the Cross-Border Institute at the University of Windsor and former executive vice president for P3 procurement and policy at the Windsor Detroit Bridge Authority, which will operate the span. "You can’t get the Gordie Howe project done without cooperation."
"This is the opportunity to connect a corridor from the Port of Montreal in Quebec all the way down through to Ontario, crossing at the Gordie Howe, connecting with highways off the I-75 that`ll take you in number of directions," Leardi-Anderson said..
The span, she said, is being "built for purpose" to accommodate the thousands of trucks crossing the Detroit River.
"The Ambassador Bridge was not built for purpose. Has it evolved to accommodate? Of course it has. It does a tremendous job,” she said, while noting problems like having to take Windsor city streets to get to it. "That’s not the best formula. I think that`s where folks started to think about, `What`s the best formula? How do we build infrastructure that is built for purpose, that is built for the movement of trucks?`"
