Area and state officials are alerting drivers to bridge closings.
Hardin County Government says following a state inspection this week, the historic bridge in White Mills has been closed to all traffic until further notice. This includes pedestrians. Temporary barriers have been placed on both ends of the bridge, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
Meanwhile, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District Four says due to safety concerns ahead of a scheduled repair project, KY 79 has been closed in both directions over the Rough River Lake Spillway Bridge in Grayson County near the Breckinridge County line. The closure is in effect through at least Thursday to allow for engineers to inspect the bridge deck and develop a course of action ahead of a scheduled deck replacement project in June. Motorists should use KY 54, KY 737, and KY 259 as an alternate route.
