Continued caution needed on Mackinac Bridge

MACKINAW CITY, MI (AP)--   Some larger vehicles are required to get an escort while crossing the Mackinac Bridge due to high winds in the Straits of Mackinac. 

The Mackinac Bridge Authority says in a posting Thursday morning on its website that the escort is required for high-profile vehicles such as pickup trucks with campers; cars hauling small boats or bicycles or luggage on the roof; some semi-trucks; and rental moving trucks.

Full details are posted online, at http://www.mackinacbridge.org

On Wednesday, motorists were urged to use extra caution due to blowing snow.
