The Detroit City Council is to hold a hearing at noon April 13 to get public comments on the proposed construction of a 6-lane bridge span next to the Ambassador Bridge.
Residents and council members want the U.S. Coast Guard to conduct an environmental and traffic impact study of the plan.
The council also met with city attorneys and planning officials in a closed meeting Tuesday to discuss pending litigation involving the Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit International Bridge Co.
The litigation involves the bridge company's apparent seizure of Riverside Park in southwest Detroit without the city's permission.
