Мост Мак-Кинак закроют для пешеходов 7 сентября: подробности ежегодного мероприятия

The Mackinac Bridge Will Be Closed On September 7th: Here’s Why One of the most infuriating things you can see when approaching the mighty Mackinac Bridge is a backup of taillights for miles. No one likes a delay, which is why the news that the Mighty Mac will be closing down for nearly six hours during one of the busiest weekends of the year would generally send anyone into a tizzy. But this closure isn't one that takes too many people off guard; it's actually a unique opportunity for people on both sides of the bridge. The Mackinac Bridge Walk will give people a day to remember as they walk over the Straits of Mackinac via the Mackinac Bridge. Here are the details. Michigan's Annual Bridge Walk Guidelines On Monday, September 7th, from 6:30 am to 12:00 pm, the Mackinac Bridge will be closed to automobiles as people cross the bridge on foot. The bridge is 5 miles long, so if you're planning to walk to the middle, you'll need to be there early. Those ambitiously looking to cross the whole thing and make it back (10 miles!) will need to reach the midway point by 10 am, according to MDOT.

This is a totally free event and makes for a good last hurrah before the kids are back in school and summer is officially over. Plus, Gretchen Whitmer will be leading the walk for the final time as Governor. After 12 pm, the bridge will reopen as normal. Read the rules here, and learn more about the Mackinac Bridge here.
