Caroll C. Cropper Bridge
The Carroll C. Cropper Bridge is a continuous steel arch shaped truss bridge over the Ohio River between Indiana and Kentucky. Built in 1977, the four-lane arched truss span provides a western Ohio River crossing for the Interstate 275 beltway around the Cincinnati area. The section of Interstate 275 on the Cropper bridge is the only Interstate highway in the Cincinnati, Ohio area that goes between Indiana and Kentucky. The bridge is the only highway bridge crossing for 20 miles west of the Cincinnati downtown area. The Markland Locks and Dam, which carries Indiana Highway 101 and Kentucky State Highway 1039, is 40 miles south and west of the Cropper Bridge.
