Kentucky's work on the Big Four bridge is nearing completion, with the spiral approach ramp over Waterfront Park complete and the removal and replacement of the old railroad ties with new concrete decking entering the final phase.
Work is also starting to heat up on the Indiana side, with concrete piers going up, leading from the bridge to the future landing site of the path, near Pearl and Chestnut streets in Jeffersonville. A new park at that site is also currently under construction. Several homes still must be cleared to make room.
The path is scheduled to open in 2013. Kentucky officials do plan to allow park goers onto the completed span once their portion of the project is compete, but before the ramp down to Indiana is finished.
