AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require U.S. Customs and Border Protection, within one year, to take actions to facilitate and speed up non-motorized border crossings, including by bicycle and on foot, across the Gordie Howe International Bridge. Within 18 months, the Government Accountability Office would have to send Congress a report reviewing how the agency has handled bicycle and pedestrian traffic on the bridge. The report would state whether the agency has facilitated these crossings, recommend how it could do more, and recommend any incentives that could encourage non-motorized traffic.
