Gordie Howe Bridge Opens Multi-Use Pathway: Walk or Bike from Ontario to Detroit

Crossing the Canada-U.S. border just got a lot more scenic. The multibillion-dollar Gordie Howe International Bridge has officially opened its dedicated multi-use pathway, welcoming pedestrians and cyclists to travel between Windsor, Ontario and Detroit, Michigan.

The free pathway opened to the public on Wednesday morning, arriving just over a week after the bridge began handling cars, personal vehicles and commercial trucks on July 27.

Connecting directly to local cycling and walking routes in both Windsor-Essex and Detroit, the path accommodates walkers, joggers and runners, along with cyclists on standard bicycles, cargo bikes, trikes and folding bikes. Pedal-assist e-bikes will also be permitted, though not for the first few weeks of operation.

The Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority (WDBA) anticipates queues at the entrances during the opening days and will cap the number of people on the path at any given time.

Not allowed on the path: motorised rideables including electric scooters, skateboards, Segways and hoverboards, as well as roller skates and in-line skates.

Stretching roughly 2.5 kilometres with a five-per-cent grade, the full crossing from one border inspection booth to the other is about three kilometres each way.

Cyclists can expect the crossing to take around 20 minutes one-way, while walkers should budget about 45 minutes. At its highest point the bridge deck sits about 46 metres (150 feet) above the Detroit River, with concrete barriers separating path users from vehicle traffic.

Whether on foot or on two wheels, remember to carry your cross-border travel documents. There is no on-site parking at either port of entry.

The pathway is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. through October 31, then from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. between November 1 and March 31. Access ends roughly one hour before closing time so everyone already on the bridge can finish their journey.

Nearly eight years in the making, the crossing is named after hockey legend Gordie Howe, who spent 25 seasons with the Detroit Red Wings.
