Read full article: Foes of new Detroit-Canada bridge lose key court decisionDETROIT The Michigan appeals court ruled in favor of the state Thursday in a challenge to a second bridge being built between Detroit and Canada. Companies controlled by the Moroun family, owners of the Ambassador Bridge, sued over the condemnation of land to make room for the Gordie Howe International Bridge. Canada assumed financial responsibility for the project, and any money spent by Michigan is reimbursed by Canada, the appeals court said. While some Michigan funds might be used momentarily, no Michigan funds are ultimately expended under the crossing agreement.The Legislature requires the Transportation Department to keep it informed with various reports, the court said. The bridge, named for a native of Canada who played hockey for the Detroit Red Wings, is expected to open in 2024.
