The floodwall arrived in Covington in 1955 but only this year was the concrete on Highway Avenue finally in the proper condition for the huge piece to be staged. Today, workers from the City of Covington erected the wall across the road and after five hours of work were preparing to dismantle it and put it back in storage where it will stay until the Ohio River rises to just over seventy feet. Meantime, the Highway Avenue lane reduction continues with just one lane in operation, guided by a single traffic light in both directions. The road is expected to reopen completely by Tuesday afternoon or early Wednesday after it is inspected and the concrete lane dividers are removed by the state.
