Brent Spence Bridge Upgrades Ahead

Major changes are hitting the Brent Spence Bridge Corridor starting late June, with two permanent exits to downtown Second Street shutting down—eastbound U.S. 50 and southbound I-75—and a temporary closure of the northbound I-71 exit until fall 2028. Drivers will be rerouted via Freeman Ave or West Fifth Street, while new overpasses over I-75 in Cincinnati will feature sidewalks, greenery, and historic neighborhood plaques. The revamped corridor will see the new bridge handle 60% of traffic, with the old Brent Spence Bridge managing 40% for local trips, and the Clay Wade Bailey Bridge getting a pedestrian-friendly upgrade—all while Ohio promises to repair any damaged city streets.
