At the graveyard for the night. Was planning on heading out towards Appleton but my trainer is routed this way. So we're going to meet up here unfortunately to catch up. Already tried to convince him to meet up in Racine or further north. Didn't work.

 

Got a load. 200 miles deadhead, then 210 loaded for tomorrow morning in Gary to relay it. They could have waited another hour to make it even more challenging to get to the shipper today with the hours I have left. LOL

 

Sitting at the hook, exit 2 on I-65 in Kentucky. Have a delivery Monday morning in Portland, TN, 6 miles away. Reset and Layover Pay coming my way!

 

A roehl driver told me last night that south bound on i65 at the Indiana/Kentucky border the bridge has a 3 ton weight limit now. Any truth to this? He was dead serious and another driver was agreeing with him.

I ask cuz I'm going I 65 all the to 'Bama

There is no restriction. Just went over it this past week.

 

Yes and no.... Electronic signs say you can't use the bridge and you must detour. Detour signs are covered up. I just went through today and went around just in case.

 

According to this there are no restrictions on the bridge.

10-4. Im just worried about that though, if it has a detour then i take that but then the signs are covered how will I know where to go lmao.

I went over it northbound three days ago with no problems. I guess ill just see what ill see.
