US-Canada Trucking Declines US-Canada Trucking Declines 12/15/08 Quote: Freight traffic over the busiest United States-Canada border crossing declined by nearly 500,000 trucks through November from the previous-year period. Truck traffic on the venerable Detroit-Windsor Ambassador Bridge dropped 14.9 percent or 474,074 trucks to 2.7 million from 3.2 million in the 2007 period, according to the Public Border Operators Association, which monitors crossings between Michigan and New York with the province of Ontario.

It's funny how the business changes from month to month. __________________ Wen
