Barkley Bridge Opening On Track For This Morning

Traffic will move to the new Lake Barkley Bridge at Canton this morning after the morning commute. Transportation Cabinet spokesman Keith Todd says crews have been working through the weekend to get the bridge along US 68-80 ready for traffic.


Even though traffic is moving to the new bridge this morning, there is still a considerable amount of work to be completed.


Todd says one of the main reasons to get started on the demolition of the old bridge quickly is because of a directive from the US Coast Guard.


Traffic is expected to move to the new bridge after 9:00 this morning. The News Edge will be at the bridge to provide coverage.
