ASHLAND, Ky. (WSAZ) - Traffic changes at the Ashland twin bridges will begin on Sept. 7, according to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.

KTC contractors will use climbing gear, lifts, and specialized trucks to inspect structural components of the 12th Street (green) and 13th Street (blue) bridges that carry U.S. 23 and U.S. 60 traffic between Kentucky and Ohio.

The inspection will require a full closure of the 12th Street bridge through Sept. 13, KTC said.

Traffic can use the Ironton Russell-Oakley Clark Collin’s Memorial Bridge during the closure, according to KTC.

On Sept. 15, the 13th Street bridge will have single lane closures until Sept. 19, KTC said.

KTC said road work schedules are subject to change depending on weather conditions.
