Site launched to support study of border infrastructure
WINDSOR, Ont. (Sept. 18, 2002) — A consortium of highway planners from Michigan, Ontario, and the U.S. and Canadian federal governments has launched a web site to raise awareness about how infrastructure at international border crossings should be developed.
The Canada-U.S.-Ontario-Michigan Border Transportation Partnership site is www.partnershipborderstudy.com.
The partnership is a working group that includes representatives from the U.S. Federal Highway Administration, Transport Canada, Michigan Dept. of Transportation, and Ontario Ministry of Transportation. It is conducting a study to assess the existing transportation network, including border crossings in the region of southeast Michigan and southwest Ontario. The study will identify medium and long-term solutions, alternatives, and potential new crossings to improve traffic flow at the southeast Michigan-southwest Ontario border, the group said.
The site is designed to encourage public and stakeholder participation in the decision-making process and provide information on the study.
