When the old KY 88 Bridge over Green River collapsed It was a long, rickety, one-lane affair, and it was a scary crossing. It collapsed 31 years ago, when Bobby Arnett was attempting a crossing pulling a bulldozer. It was an eerily slow collapse, and Arnett was, miraculously uninjured. Click on headline for story plus photos. By Larry Smith Operations Manager, FM 99.9, The Big Dawg, Campbellsville, KY The Highway 88 Bridge spanning the Green River in Green County KY.This was a one -lane bridge and a very scary bridge to cross. In 1980 Bobby Arnett was crossing the bridge when the dozer he was pulling caused the bridge to collapse. Arnett told me that the bridge slowly fell into the river and Arnett was not injured. Also before the Green River Dam in Taylor county was built in the late 60's the water would rise over the bridge or at least up to the floor..."I'm tellin' ya...I hated to cross the bridge"... The bridge was replaced with a modern two-lane bridge. This story was posted on 2011-09-20 17:14:35
