Indiana state agencies have begun procurement of toll systems covering some thirty lanes on three bridges over the Ohio River in the Louisville, Kentucky/southern Indiana metro area.

Indiana Finance Authority (IFA) is procuring a toll system provider (TSP) to supply and install in-road loops or other vehicle detection, tracking and vehicle classification and cameras, together with a back office system, customer service centre and violations processing system and centre, along with operation and maintenance.

Indiana DOT (INDOT) will buy multiprotocol readers and transponders in a separate electronic toll equipment procurement. Toll reader equipment must be multiprotocol and able to read at a minimum E-ZPass IAG and 6C. Toll gantries and equipment pads are being supplied by the civil design-build contractor.

The I-65 Kennedy Bridge will be refurbished and converted to southbound-only traffic.  Immediately alongside, a new Downtown Bridge will be built to carry northbound traffic. A new East End Crossing is planned eight miles upriver on the eastern outskirts of metro area development. Both new spans will be cable-stayed structures. A total of six toll zones has been defined adjacent to the three bridges.
