Gordie Howe Bridge (US-Canada)

[1995hoo]

I suspect the path is primarily considered to be recreational, much like the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge path is.  The GMCB path has a similar speed restriction due to how narrow it is (although it's rounded up to 15).  You probably wouldn't get a ticket for running faster - it's probably just to keep cyclists from blowing past pedestrians at high speed.

I found this part of the FAQ to be a bit contradictory:

Users are allowed to return to their country of origin at any point along their journey. Border inspection is mandatory upon entering the country regardless of duration or length of trip on the path.

So, an you turn back at any point, or are you locked in to proceeding all the way to customs if you step even one inch across the border?  As much as I would think treating it like the Peace Arch would be logical (especially since, unlike the Peace Arch, all users must go through customs when exiting), I'm also not sure that the current US government would agree to something like that.

It means that you can turn back, but you still have to clear customs in the country from which your trip originated even though you may not have entered the other. In other words, once you go onto the bridge, you have to clear either US or Canadian customs even if you only go partway across (say, you want to take a picture of yourself straddling the border). You don't have to "proceed all the way to" the other country's customs facility.

I am imagining pulling a Fast & Furious U'ey on the 6-lane bridge deck that has no separation barrier, to return to my origin point
