Rt. Hon. Herb Gray Parkway

The Windsor Essex Mobility Group (WEMG) is the consortium selected to design, build, finance and maintain the Parkway. WEMG is a partnership between ACS Infrastructure Canada Inc., Acciona Concessions Canada, and Fluor Canada Limited. 

• Provides a freeway for commercial motorists and reduces heavy traffic in residential areas. (At the time of the project's construction, nearly one-third of all Canada-U.S road trade travelled through the Detroit-Windsor border and through residential neighbourhoods in Windsor-Essex);
• Recreational trails connect communities and promote healthy living;
• Green space was integrated with local parks and other protected natural areas to create a green corridor that supports viable natural communities and buffers surrounding communities from the freeway;
• Species-at-risk and their habitats are protected for the long-term, and where necessary, they were relocated to areas that were restored, enhanced or created and protected.

• The project was a major catalyst for job creation, other public projects and partnerships.
• The project's primary contractor, Parkway Infrastructure Contractors (PIC), partnered with Ontario-based companies to construct the project. 
• PIC estimates that between 60 to 80 sub-contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars were put out to tender over the course of the project.
• Much of the Parkway's construction and maintenance work were performed by local sub-trades and the majority of on-site labour went to tradespeople in the region.
• About 1,200 workers were on the site daily, at the peak of construction. 
• WEMG estimates its partners spent hundreds of millions of dollars on local labour, local supplies, and materials over the lifespan of the project.
