TRAVEL IS REDUCED TO TWO LANES IN EACH DIRECTION ON THE BRENT SPENCE BRIDGE

The Phase 1 traffic pattern is now in place - please slow down and use caution when traveling through the work area  
This weekend, maintenance crews completed set-up for the Brent Spence Bridge maintenance project and the Phase 1 traffic pattern is now in place. Two lanes are open to traffic on both the northbound and southbound decks of the bridge. The two eastern-most lanes on both decks are closed. Drivers should  plan ahead and know which lane they need to be in to reach their destinations.

The maps below provide additional detail. These maps are also on BrentSpence2017.org.
