Motorists urged to use I-24 Corridor due to bridge collapse

Due to the bridge incident that occurred late last night at Eggner’s Ferry Bridge on U.S. 68 and Ky 80, Kentucky State Police and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet are urging residents to avoid the area.
According to KSP, motorists who normally travel westbound on US 68 through the Land between the Lakes should avoid LBL, KY 453 as well as US 68.
Officials say motorists can instead use Interstate 24 corridor to the purchase parkway to access this area.
