Directions: Meet at the Blue Water Bridge Maintenance Facility. Unfortunately, the address when input to GPS will take people to a gated and locked back entrance in a neighborhood. The MDOT - BWB Maintenance Facility is accessible from I-94 EB between the I-69/I-94 interchange and Water St. It is clearly signed, and there is an exit from the freeway.
