Parsons Corporation recognized the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge, a 2,800-foot-long cable-stayed main span bridge connecting Detroit, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The bridge, which is the longest of its kind in North America, was opened by the Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority. Parsons served as owner's engineer for the $4.7 billion ($6.4 billion CAD) project, which provides redundancy at the busiest trade corridor between Canada and the United States. The project also included Canadian customs inspection plazas, a toll plaza, a full interchange with I-75 in Michigan, and local road improvements, with an expected service life of more than 100 years.
