Windsor interested in Metro Detroit’s transportation plans

From rail to ferries, Windsor is taking a keen interest in how Metro Detroit invests in transportation infrastructure (and vice versa), cementing the view that although an international border divides us, we’re all in this together. Excerpt: “A passenger line to Canada would change Detroit’s place in the rail system, from an end-of-the-line outpost to a crossroad for high-speed rail service from Quebec and Ontario to Chicago, and by extension, St. Louis and Kansas City. International passenger rail from Detroit is, at least on the U.S. side, a realistic goal because the existing Amtrak route can easily connect to the rail tunnel under the Detroit River.” Read the rest of the story here.
