FAST lane opens at Ambassador Bridge
U.S. and Canadian border agencies will open a dedicated Free and Secure Trade (FAST lane in both directions on Nov. 1 at the Ambassador Bridge, which connects Detroit and Windsor, Ontario.
The FAST program is designed to electronically identify trusted carriers who have pre-registered drivers, vehicles and cargo so they can proceed across the border without stopping for document checks. But truckers often fail to realize the benefits of streamlined clearance because they are trapped in line along with other trucks.
Both governments are studying ways to expand roads and infrastructure to accommodate a FAST green lane at the border.
