Shoulders closed on Milton-Madison Bridge for plate project

MILTON, Ky. (AP) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says shoulders are closed on the Milton-Madison Bridge across the Ohio River while cover plates are installed this week.

The agency says the work is already underway and is expected to help smooth access for bicycle traffic. Four plates are being installed, one at each corner.

The work won’t affect the pedestrian walkway. The project is expected to be finished by the end of the week.

The Milton-Madison Bridge Project is a joint effort between the Indiana Department of Transportation and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.
