Local drivers frustrated by backups near the Blue Water Bridge can breathe a little easier. State officials say recent slowdowns weren’t tied to Michigan construction but to short-term customs issues in Canada that have now been fixed. The new eastbound I-94/I-69 ramp to Pine Grove Avenue is open, and crews are finishing noise wall work along Scott Avenue by mid-November. The $36 million bridge plaza expansion continues to support hundreds of local jobs, though some drivers still take city routes to avoid delays.
