The Ohio River bridge between Wickliffe and Cairo was free of traffic restrictions over the weekend,  but they will resume today through the first part of the week.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet said the 10-foot width restriction was removed from the U.S. 51/60/62 Ohio River Cairo Bridge between Kentucky and Illinois, to allow truckers and farmers to move wider loads. 

Weather and equipment problems had prevented earlier completion of a detailed inspection of the bridge.

Flaggers will control alternating traffic across the bridge from 7am til 7pm through Wednesday.
