Ensure all links are valid and point to RiverLink.com

To protect customers, RiverLink warns recipients of a text smishing attempt impersonating the tolling service for three bridges connecting Kentucky and Indiana. The text message includes a link and the sender is listed as “RiverLinks” or “Kentucky Toll Roads”. RiverLink is working to have any reported fraudulent websites removed.

Recipients are urged to closely review any text messages received and ensure all links are valid and pointing to RiverLink.com.

Anyone who may have clicked on a fraudulent link and provided any personally identifiable information should immediately contact their bank or credit card provider to secure their information and financial accounts.

Victims of SMS tolling text scams should file a complaint with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) and be sure to include the phone number from where the text originated and the website listed within the text.

Toll rates are updated every year

To ensure the operations and maintenance of the three bridges connecting Louisville and Southern Indiana, beginning July 1, 2024, new toll rates will be in effect. The annual rates are determined by a bi-state resolution established in 2013.

Rates will range from $2.61 for passenger cars to $15.61 for 5-axle+ trucks, depending on the size of the vehicle and whether the driver has a prepaid account.

Drivers in passenger vehicles with transponders and prepaid accounts in good standing save 50% ($2.61) per crossing. The easiest way to maintain a positive account balance is by choosing auto-replenishment and linking the account to a valid payment method.

Tolling is in place on the I-65 Abraham Lincoln Bridge, I-65 Kennedy Bridge and SR 265/KY 841 Lewis and Clark Bridge connecting Prospect, Kentucky, and Utica, Indiana.

Under the bi-state resolution, toll rates are adjusted annually by 2.5% unless the rate of inflation (as measured by the Consumer Price Index) is higher. The CPI used to calculate this year’s increase was 3.4%.
