Connecting the Gordie Howe International Bridge to the largest ports on the Canada-US Land Border

2024 was monumental for the Gordie Howe International Bridge project with achievements that were both on public display and behind-the-scenes. In honour of the jersey number our namesake, Gordie Howe, famously wore throughout his hockey career, here are the project’s top nine highlights that defined 2024.

Excitement is building as the Gordie Howe International Bridge project draws closer to construction completion and opening day in 2025. This fall, a new cohort of co-op students had the opportunity to be part of history in the making on this once-in-generation infrastructure project. 

The architecturally epic Gordie Howe International Bridge project has been recognized for making an impact that echoes well beyond its physical footprint. The project team recently brought home the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike’s Association’s (IBTTA) Social Responsibility Award, acknowledging the project for its social responsibility efforts, including its community benefits plan, active transportation investments and environmental management planning.
