Parsons Completes Gordie Howe International Bridge Opening
On July 27, 2026, the Gordie Howe International Bridge officially opened, connecting Detroit and Windsor across North America's busiest trade corridor. The $4.7 billion (CAD $6.4 billion) cable-stayed bridge is over 2,800 feet long—making it the longest of its kind in North America—and will enhance economic growth by reducing congestion and improving supply chain efficiency for key sectors like automotive and manufacturing. Parsons Corporation served as owner’s engineer on the project, leveraging decades of global infrastructure expertise. The bridge includes two ports of entry, toll plazas, customs inspection facilities, local road improvements in both cities, and dedicated space for pedestrians and cyclists. It is expected to have a service life exceeding 100 years. The new structure supports regional development by creating jobs, stimulating redevelopment in Detroit and Windsor, and reducing emissions through improved traffic flow.
