On September 23, 2021 the KY Department of Highways conducted a scheduled inspection of the Prestonville Bridge over the KY River. As a result of that inspection, the weight limit was reduced to 22 tons. Signs are posted. For all our commercial drivers using that bridge, it will be necessary to find an alternative route if your truck grosses more than 44,000 pounds.
