Today marks the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor project’s official groundbreaking.
A ceremony will mark the start of construction on the main part of the $4 billion-plus project – a new bridge over the Ohio River first, to be followed by reconfiguration of the existing bridge.
Confirmed to attend the invite-only 1 p.m. event are Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, Kentucky U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell, Ohio U.S. Rep. Greg Landsman, Federal Highway Administration Administrator Sean McMaster and other officials.
The Enquirer will update this story.
