Ledbetter bridge down to one lane tomorrow


The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to restrict traffic to one lane on the U.S. 60 Tennessee River Bridge between Paducah and Ledbetter.

The lane restriction is to allow a walk-through inspection on the bridge deck.

Motorists can expect to encounter one-lane traffic with alternating flow controlled by flaggers between about 8:30 a.m., and 1 p.m.

Motorists are reminded that the US 60 Tennessee River Bridge continues to have a strictly enforced 3-ton load limit and a 35-mile-per-hour speed limit with an enhanced police presence.
