The Mackinac Bridge was closed to most vehicles Monday morning due to high winds reaching 50-64 mph, with only passenger cars, vans, and empty trucks allowed. The closure affected traffic heading to the Straits, and drivers were advised to reduce speeds to 20 mph as they approached. Bridge personnel were on-site to direct vehicles. The Bridge Authority required escorts for large vehicles overnight Sunday.
