en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 11, 2026, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the reconstructed Miller-Rotunda Bridge in Dearborn. Originally built in 1931, the bridge underwent its last repair in 1983 and was still supported by 500 wooden pilings before construction began in 2023. The three-year project involved a comprehensive restoration of the two connecting spans, bringing the total number of repaired state and local bridges in Michigan to nearly 2,000 after decades of underinvestment. These two connecting bridges carry over 3 million vehicles annually.

At the ceremony, Whitmer stated that reopening the Miller-Rotunda Bridge was a full-circle moment, as she had visited the bridge during her first year as governor. The restored bridge will connect Dearborn and serve as a critical artery for Ford's Rouge Complex, driving economic growth. She also noted that Michigan has repaired over 26,500 lane miles of roads and nearly 2,000 bridges, supporting tens of thousands of high-paying jobs and making commutes smoother and safer for residents.
