SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Detroit River International Crossing (DRIC) Study is a bi-national effort to complete the environmental study processes related to a new international crossing between Windsor, Ontario, and Detroit, Michigan. The Border Transportation Partnership (The Partnership) leads this study. It is formed of the following agencies: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), Transport Canada (TC) and Ontario Ministry of Transportation (MTO). The DRIC Study identifies solutions that support the region, State, provincial and national economies while addressing the civil and national defense and homeland security needs of the busiest trade corridor between the United States and Canada. The Detroit River, which separates the U.S. and Canada, currently has border crossings at the Ambassador Bridge (four lanes), the Detroit-Windsor VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:01 May 08, 2008 Jkt 214001 Tunnel (two lanes), the Detroit-Canada Rail Tunnels, and the Detroit-Windsor Truck Ferry. These multi modal transportation links provide the connections for freight and passenger movements between the two countries. The DRIC Study includes transportation alternatives that improve bordercrossing facilities, operations, and connections to meet existing and future mobility and security needs. Purpose and Need for the Project: The purpose of the DRIC Study is to provide safe, efficient and secure movement of people and goods across the U.S.Canadian border in the Detroit River area to support the economies of Michigan, Ontario, Canada and the United States, and to support the mobility needs of national and civil defense to protect the homeland. To address future border crossing mobility requirements through 2035, there is a need to: —Provide new border-crossing capacity to meet increased long-term demand; —Improve system connectivity to enhance the seamless flow of people and goods; —Improve operations and processing capability in accommodating the flow of people and goods; and —Provide reasonable and secure crossing options (i.e., redundancy) in the event of incidents, maintenance, congestion, or other disruptions. Alternatives Evaluated: The DEIS evaluates nine Build Alternatives in addition to a No Build Alternative. The nine Build Alternatives each include an interchange plaza, a customs inspection plaza, and a bridge from the plaza that spans the Detroit River. The DEIS analyzes the issues/impacts on the United State’s side of the proposed new border crossing. A Canadian-produced set of documents analyzes the issues/ impacts on the Canadian side. The No-Build Alternative would not result in a new international border crossing system in the Detroit-Windsor area. Only the existing crossings, plazas and freeway connections, including the Gateway connection currently under construction, would continue operations. A second privately-owned bridge has been proposed by the Detroit International Bridge Company in the Ambassador Bridge Enhancement Environmental Assessment and was included in the No-Build Alternative.
