Feds Provide Funding to Ease Traffic Problems at Detroit-Windsor Tunnel
The U.S. government is granting $95,000 to help the traffic flow at the border between Detroit and Windsor, Ontario.
The federal government is granting Michigan more than $95,000 in an effort to ease congestion at the Detroit-Windsor tunnel.
The federal funding is intended to help motorists find more accurate information about how long they may have to wait at specific crossings.
It’s part of what the Federal Highway Administration calls its Border Wait Time Deployment Initiative.
The money is designed to help hasten the creation and use of technology like sensors that measure how long traffic congestion could delay travelers.
The funding was granted to the Michigan Transportation Department, which is expected to use the funding for improved technology at the Detroit–Windsor tunnel, which crosses the border between Michigan and Ontario.
