New Community Benefits Plan Investments Announced for Windsor and Detroit

On February 1, 2023, the Gordie Howe International Bridge project team announced $2.3 (CDN) million of Community Benefits Plan funding has been invested into new initiatives. 

Anchor boxes installed in Gordie Howe International Bridge towers

There is more than meets the eye when looking at the Gordie Howe International Bridge towers and, in this case, what is inside is just as important as what is outside.  Significant progress continues on the project as site crews install structural steel anchor boxes into the top of the bridge towers – a critical component to the bridge’s stay-cable support system.  

A year in review - 2022

The Gordie Howe International Bridge project has wrapped up another big year. 2022 was one of our busiest years of construction to date, and we’re excited to share some highlights and accomplishments we’re proud of through photos, videos, and graphics. Take a look back on 2022 with us though our recent gallery that includes some never-before-seen construction images as well inspiring moments shared through the Community Benefits program. Our 2022 time-lapse video of the project showcases project progress achieved during the 2022 construction season.  In addition, below you will find the 10 graphics we shared throughout the month of December on social media highlighting accomplishments from the year. Check it out and join the conversation on social media using #GordieHoweBridgeWrapped. We look forward to sharing more with you in 2023. 

Meet our Fall 2022 Co-op Students

This fall, 16 post-secondary students from Ontario developed new skills, gained valuable work experience, and made their mark on the once-in-a-lifetime Gordie Howe International Bridge project through a co-op opportunity at Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority (WDBA).   

Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority wins award for excellence in communications

Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority (WDBA) was recognized by the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Detroit with a Beacon Award of Excellence for Corporate Communications Team of the Year at a ceremony on December 8, 2022, at TechTown Detroit. 

Calling all non-profits! Get your applications ready for the 2023 Community Organization Investment

The Gordie Howe International Bridge project team has launched the application period for the 2023 Community Organization Investment, a five-year initiative through the project Community Benefits Plan.

Large-scale model of Gordie Howe International Bridge project arrives at Windsor City Hall

Initially built in 2020 and showcased at Art Windsor-Essex the following year, Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority’s (WDBA) large-scale model of the Gordie Howe International Bridge project is now on display at Windsor City Hall. Free to the public, the display offers a unique opportunity to get an up close, three-dimensional look at the project currently under construction. 

Coming together: Gordie Howe International Bridge tower transition area completed in preparation for new heights

Visible at key vantage points throughout Windsor and Detroit, the distinctive tower legs of the Gordie Howe International Bridge are an engineering marvel. Currently standing at approximately 152 metres/500 feet and exceeding the height of any structure in the City of Windsor, and taller than the Statue of Liberty in the United States, the tower legs are a stunning example of the progress made to date and what is to come on this iconic project.

Gordie Howe International Bridge project receives two Canadian Consulting Engineering Awards

The Gordie Howe International Bridge project took home two awards at the 2022 Canadian Consulting Engineering (CCE) Awards. Recognized for its outstanding Environmental Management System (EMS), the project received both an Award of Excellence and the Ambassador Award. The Ambassador Award is one of just five specialty awards bestowed among the Award of Excellence winners.
