The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has reduced the load limit on a section of County Line Road at the Mayfield Creek Branch Bridge in Graves County.
KY 1820 is reduced to a 3-ton load limit due to deterioration of timber pilings on the bridge. The bridge had previously been posted at 18 tons.
The reduction to 3-tons generally limits the bridge to vehicles no heavier than a standard SUV or a pickup truck.
KYTC engineers will evaluate the bridge structure to determine if it can be repaired or should be replaced.
