So far the Woodward, Van Dyke and Gratiot bridges have been rebuilt to a wider span that allows for 4 lanes of traffic underneath... even though there are still only 3 lanes.
P.S. All the newer bridges east of Conner [[including Moross, Vernier/8 Mile, and the Mile Rd. bridges beyond) have already been replaced. So some of these older I-94 mid-city bridges are in bad need of replacement.
