COVINGTON – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced today that a bridge inspection project will require evening and overnight closures on the Brent Spence Bridge.

Work will require double lane closures on the bridge beginning Sunday, April 21.

Inspectors will be on-site between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. A single lane closure will be in place at the approach to the bridge in Ohio on both I-71 southbound and I-75 southbound.

A double lane closure will be in place on the southbound portion of the Spence Bridge from the 191.63 mile point to the 191.36 mile point.

All lanes will reopen to traffic by 6:00 a.m.

This portion of the inspection is expected to be completed by Friday, April 26.

Inspectors are scheduled to return in mid-May for another portion of the inspection. A full inspection will take place in August.

Motorists are encouraged to find an alternative route to avoid any potential delays.
