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

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.
