Effects of Bridge
A new four-lane expressway, from U.S. Highway 60 near Owensboro to the Natcher Bridge was constructed. Upon the completion of the bridge, U.S. Highway 231 was rerouted onto the new four-lane highway and around Owensboro, Kentucky. U.S. Highway 231 in the city of Owensboro was renumbered to Kentucky Route 2155 and in Indiana from the old Glover Cary Bridge to the Indiana four-lane expressway approach, old U.S. Highway 231 was renumbered to State Road 161.
Eventually, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to extend the U.S. 60 By-Pass (also known as the Wendell H. Ford Expressway) eastward from just north of the Kentucky 54 interchange to the junction of U.S. 60/231 and Kentucky 2830 between Owensboro and Maceo, Kentucky. This project, in tandem with the Natcher Bridge and Indiana's project to expand U.S. 231 to four lanes from the Ohio River to Interstate 64, will create an almost non-stop, high-speed route from I-64 near Dale, Indiana to Interstate 65 in Bowling Green, Kentucky, allowing a bypass of Louisville, Kentucky.

“Whereas Freud was for the most part concerned with the morbid effects of unconscious repression, Jung was more interested in the manifestations of unconscious expression, first in the dream and eventually in all the more orderly products of religion and art and morals.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
“The best road to correct reasoning is by physical science; the way to trace effects to causes is through physical science; the only corrective, therefore, of superstition is physical science.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
“It launch’d forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself,
Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them.
And you O my soul where you stand,
Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them,
Till the bridge you will need be form’d, till the ductile anchor hold,
Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O, my soul.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
