CARTER COUNTY, Ky. (WSAZ) -- The weight limit for a bridge in Carter County has been reduced from 17 tons to 3 tons.

The bridge is on KY 773 near Grayson.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says the move was made because of deterioration of some of the steel supports on the bridge. They may raise the limit in the future if repairs are made.
