BORDER INFRASTRUCTURES * Canada/USA - Canada Buys Land for New Detroit-Windsor Bridge
Windsor,ONT,Canada -The Journal of Commerce, by Courtney Tower -Jul 20, 2009: -- Canada on July 20 put up the cash to bring a publicly-owned bridge between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario, "one step closer" to fruition despite legal and lobbying challenges from the U.S. owner of the present Ambassador Bridge... After years of dispute and controversy, the governments of the United States, Canada, Michigan and Ontario decided to build a replacement bridge two miles from the 80-year-old Ambassador Bridge, owned by industrialist Manuel Moroun of Grosse Point, Mich. They chose the site over the opposition of Moroun, who is trying to go ahead with his own construction of a six-lane twin span to the Ambassador, connecting the existing plazas of Detroit and Windsor...
