Motorists can now travel on Old Salem Road for the first time in four years after the bridge over Clarks River was reopened to traffic on Tuesday.

The Murray Sentinel reported that the bridge replaces one originally built in the 1940s on KY 94 West which was later moved to Old Salem Road in 1976.

The cost of rebuilding the bridge was $1.3 million.
