Welcome!
Welcome to the Milton-Madison Bridge Project Web site, a cooperative effort between the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT).
The people of Milton, Ky., and Madison, Ind., have long coped with the issue of the community’s narrow and deteriorating US 421 bridge. Now the 80-year-old span is set to be replaced with a safe new bridge.
Using a method called "superstructure replacement," KYTC and INDOT will replace the bridge by constructing a new steel superstructure atop the existing piers, which will be brought up to modern standards. While superstructure replacement presents the most expedient and affordable solution to replacing the bridge, it requires closing the bridge for up to a year during construction. During that time, free ferry service will be used to meet some of the traffic demand.
KYTC and INDOT are united in the effort to keep both communities well-informed as the project moves forward. We hope you will visit this site often for the latest information on the Milton-Madison Bridge Project.
