Go Green Middle Tennessee!
It's been almost a year, now the final debris has been cleaned up from the Eggners Ferry Bridge collapse. The U.S. Coast Guard says salvage crews have wrapped up on the Kentucky Lake in Cadiz, Kentucky. Crews removed over 1 million lbs. of material from the bottom of the lake. Concrete and steel and other materials sunk the night of the bridge collapse on January 26. Most of the debris will be recycled.
