Highways: bridges; use of property at the Gordie Howe International Bridge; provide for. Amends sec. 2 of 1941 PA 205 (MCL 252.52).
This bill amends Michigan's highway law to clarify how state-owned property at the Gordie Howe International Bridge in Detroit can be used for commercial activities. It allows the state transportation department to lease facilities at international border crossings for selling goods intended for export and consumption outside the United States, as well as for customs brokering services. The legislation also permits the department to enter into agreements for electronic travel information devices, logo signage, and vending machine operations, with all generated revenue deposited into state funds. These provisions apply specifically to the Gordie Howe International Bridge, the Blue Water Bridge in Port Huron, and the International Bridge in Sault Ste. Marie.
