Bridge Structure May Be Shifting
It appears the remaining structure of the Eggner Ferry Bridge may be shifting. Saturday afternoon a LBL Ranger noticed that something had apparently changed on the bridge. Deck guardrail where the deck transitions from an approach span to the last truss span is now showing signs of being bent where the two spans join. Inspectors say this may provide an additional indication that a pier on the truss section has shifted since Friday. Pictures are courtesy of Keith Todd with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.
