Indiana-Kentucky bridge crossings?

Its been ages since I took the US41 bridge (in a car) so I couldn't say
however it would appear the US231 route wouldn't be as bad traffic-wise

Go a little farther east and you have another crossing at Cannelton

I'm planning my first solo tour for late summer, from my home in
Lafayette, Indiana 250 miles or so south into west central Kentucky
and back, spending the Labor day weekend with friends there.

Just wondering what the bridge access is like crossing into Owensboro
(I believe US 231?) vs going from Evansville IN via US 41? The former
would be my most direct route, although I'm considering a loop where I
would use the Evansville route on the way home.

You might want to post this in rec.bicycles.rides. It's a good
newsgroup if you are into bicycle touring.

Go to http://www.in.gov/isp/ for road and weather information from the
Indiana State Police.
I am sure they will help you.

Thaks John. I'll check over there for tips. I'll likely take the 231
bridge, unless I decide to head to mammoth cave before heading toward
the ancestral home near Central City, KY. Then I may check out the
smaller bridge by Cannelton.
