BRENT SPENCE BRIDGE &
NEW I-71/75 COMPANION BRIDGE

The Brent Spence Bridge is structurally sound and will remain in service for local traffic. To maintain a smooth passage of freight along the vital I-71/75 national corridor, a new companion bridge will be built for through traffic, enhancing traffic flow for both regional and national travelers.

Kentucky & Ohio

As the new companion bridge is built, multiple projects along the eight-mile I-71/75 corridor on either end of the Brent Spence Bridge will be completed to improve travel and safety in the Bluegrass and Buckeye states. Ohio’s Department of Transportation and Kentucky’s Transportation Cabinet will manage these improvements.
