An important communications link across Kentucky Lake will be restored this weekend. Communications technicians will reconnect a fiber optic cable across the Eggners Ferry Bridge Friday night. The cable was severed when the Delta Mariner struck the bridge in January of last year.
AT&T temporarily restored internet and telephone service by running a cable across the bottom of the lake. The new cable has been strung across the bridge and workers will tie it into the main lines.
Transportation officials say the work will begin at both ends of the bridge around 9:00pm Friday. Traffic should not be impacted by the cable reconnection.
