discrepancy in bridge cost[edit]

The figure mentioned on Bridges & Tunnels ($128.3 million) actually doesn't match the FHWA report very well at all ($228.55 million), though when I added in the FHWA citation I mistook them as being very close. That report also lists the Lake Barkley Bridge construction firm as TBD, which makes me think it might be preliminary, however. I will try to track down the KY Transportation Cabinet release Bridges & Tunnels cites. Ullpianissimo (talk) 01:42, 28 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've found the article that Bridges & Tunnels is citing here (however I recommend instead that you visit my archive of the link (today, potential future reference) due to their security certificate not matching up with their website archived). I am not really sure which is more likely to be accurate at this point; FHWA still seems possibly preliminary, but this news article could conceivably contain a typo explaining the discrepancy.
