I-69 Ohio River Bridge

[Life in Paradise]

Just noted this week that INDOT placed a mileage sign on I-69 near the intersection with US 41 indicating 13 miles to Henderson, KY.  That sign wasn't there before.  It looks to be close to where the exit will be to the bridge.

Are you referring to this sign?

That's the one.  I didn't have my phone out when I went by it.

ORX Section 2 has five different bridge designs for the new I-69 Ohio River crossing:

Post-Tensioned Segmental Concrete Box
Cable-Stayed
Tied-Arch
Truss
Extradosed

Bridge Design
Open bridge type selection; tied-arch bridge and cable-stay bridge are prequalified
Single 800' or two 650' navigational channels; single 250' channel along Kentucky bank

The bridge itself will feature four 12-foot travel lanes with a 10-foot shoulder on the right and a 4-foot shoulder on the left, separated by a concrete median barrier.

Hmmm Now that I've looked at what an extradosed bridge is I'd vote for that.  Since wikipedia says there's only 5 of them in the US.  Though most people would likely mistakenly call them a cable-stayed bridge from looking at it since the extradosed bridge does also have cables.
