Four-minute delays tomorrow on Ledbetter bridge

 The Ledbetter bridge on U.S. 60 over the Tennessee River will be down to one lane of traffic from 8:30 a.m., to 3:30 p.m., tomorrow (Thursday).

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to restrict traffic to one lane while the regular monthly inspection of the bridge is conducted.  

Monthly inspections have been in conducted since a three-ton load limit was placed on the bridge a few months ago. Alternating traffic flow will be controlled by flaggers. Travel delays should be minimal, generally less than 4 minutes.
