The only way to get across the Ohio River “Blue Bridge” in Owensboro Saturday morning will be by foot. The bridge will be closed to vehicles from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m. for a Bridge Day event.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says a marked detour will take cars over the US 231 Ohio River “Natcher” Bridge, a route that will add 10 minutes of travel time between Reo, Indiana and downtown Owensboro.
