Bethlehem Church Road Bridge to Close for Full Replacement

Wickliffe, KY - The Bethlehem Church Road Bridge, located at the 1.05-mile marker, crossing Buckheart creek is scheduled to close during the week of October 14th for a full replacement. The current bridge, built in 1942, is one of the oldest still in use in Ballard County.

The new structure will feature an Open Grid Decking System and will be constructed using weathering 588 steel, offering improved durability and safety. The closure is expected to last 6 to 8 weeks as crews demolish the existing bridge and build the replacement.

Further updates, including detailed timelines and detour information, will be provided as we approach the closure date.
