    A diverse group of approximately twelve people celebrate inside a Detroit public transit bus (numbered 2527). Two women are prominently featured in the foreground—one wearing a black and white plaid blazer on the left, the other in a black blazer with glasses on the right—both smiling and gesturing. Additional passengers stand and sit throughout the bus behind them, several wearing blue clothing. Yellow handrails and support poles frame the scene, with red banners visible that read "Believe Your Story." Windows show the street outside, and the interior has blue-gray seating.

As this issue of EL CENTRAL went to press, Crain’s Detroit Business reported that a ribbon-cutting ceremony has been planned for Friday morning, July 24 in anticipation of the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge to vehicle traffic on Monday, July 27.

Pedestrian and bicycle traffic will be allowed to cross the bridge, free of any tolls, starting on Wednesday, August 5. Stay tuned for updates and hopefully a full report in our next issue regarding the opening of the international border crossing between Detroit and “our neighbors to the south” in Windsor, Ontario, Canada.
