Michigan's Bridges: Blue Water Bridges across the St. Clair River (1)

August 2011 (42.999 Degrees, -82.424 Degrees) Blue Water Bridges
If you continue driving east on I-94, you eventually come to the Michigan-Ontario border and the Blue Water Bridges. Although the two bridges look similar, the newer bridge (in the foreground) is a tied arch while the older bridge is a cantilever truss.

Driving across the new bridge into Canada in the morning was pretty fast but returning on the old bridge in the afternoon took an hour while we waited to go through customs.
