This Campaign Invests In Safe Infrastructure
This bridge once had weight restrictions so severe that school buses and emergency vehicles couldn’t safely cross.
Today, it’s been fully replaced — and the project was completed without using local tax dollars.
Investing in safe infrastructure and supporting the people who live and work here will always matter in LaRue County.
