Regional Impacts
Building the bridges created major regional benefits, including:
- Safer, more efficient travel through what was historically some of the most accident-prone areas in Louisville and southern Indiana.
- Economic opportunities for industrial, commercial, retail and residential development. Infrastructure improvements make us more competitive in attracting businesses and lead to more jobs and a stronger economy.
Tolling Made This Unprecedented Joint Effort Possible
Funding a project of this scale took an unprecedented joint effort between Indiana and Kentucky, plus support from the Federal Highway Administration. But even those efforts fell short of the projected $2.3 billion cost. To move the project forward, leaders of both states and FHWA agreed that toll revenue would be used to fill the gap between project costs and traditional sources of transportation funding.
