A dedicated multi-use path will connect to local cycling routes on both sides of the border, unlocking new cross-border adventures and making Windsor Essex a true hub for international cycle tourism. And access to the multi-use path is FREE! Whether you’re riding, strolling, or simply taking in the views, the Gordie Howe International Bridge offers a bold new way to experience the region—one that quite literally brings two countries closer together.
