Thread: new bridges

I vote we let wiskers push the plunger when they blow up BOTH bridges. BTW, with KY having TWO GOP senators, I figure DC will find tons of things more important than new bridges in KY.

Demolition & removal is expensive! I would say that in the main channel they will remove anything that is not covered by at least 20' of water in winter pool. Outside the channel I see no need to remove the piers.

I hear they are going to put the piers on the new bridge 110ft apart and paint them OD green to avoid disturbing the views of lakefront property owners.

I hope you're joke'n! My understanding was that the channel span is gonna be over 400'.

110' gives me 5' of clearance on a 15 barge tow!
