William H. Natcher Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge over Ohio River between Kentucky and Indiana, United States.
The William H. Natcher Bridge extends 4,505 feet across the Ohio River, featuring two concrete towers rising 374 feet above the water level.
Construction of the bridge began in 1998 after preliminary funding started in 1988, with the official opening ceremony taking place on October 21, 2002.
The bridge received its name from William Huston Natcher, who represented Kentucky's 2nd Congressional District from 1954 until 1994.
The structure carries US Highway 231 traffic between Owensboro, Kentucky and Rockport, Indiana, reducing congestion on the older Glover Cary Bridge.
The bridge holds the distinction of being the longest cable-stayed structure over any inland waterway system in the United States.
