The National Park Service has announced the closure of the historic Lincoln Memorial Bridge on Highway 441 to all vehicle and pedestrian traffic starting Monday.
The closure is expected to last through March 2027 while crews rebuild the granite towers and walls on the bridge’s Indiana approach and restore its historic facade.
A large crane will sit on the bridge deck as workers reinstall original granite stones, some weighing thousands of pounds.
Drivers will be detoured via US 50, US 41 and 6th Street.
The park’s visitor center, parking lot and memorial building will stay open.
