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.
