In an effort to do more than verbally communicate with state officials, the Spencer County Fiscal Court passed a resolution Monday night in support of repairing the Blue Bridge, which carries Ky. 55 across the Salt River.
Original plans were to replace the time-worn bridge with a new bridge that would realign Ky. 55 upstream, Judge-Executive Bill Karrer said.
However, that project has proved too costly to begin in the near future, so plans changed to build a new bridge next to the current Blue Bridge and then tear the Blue Bridge down when construction finished.
