Everyone in the region can use two reminders each year ahead of the Thunder Over Louisville fireworks showcase – don’t drive downtown Saturday, and the Second Street bridge closes earlier in the week.

This year, the untolled George Rogers Clark Memorial Bridge, which connects Louisville via Second Street with Jeffersonville, will shut down at 9:30 a.m. Thursday to give event organizers time to prepare for the weekend show. The downtown crossing is set to reopen to the public at 2 p.m. Sunday, according to Kentucky Derby Festival officials.

The George Rogers Clark Memorial Bridge is one of just two crossings between Louisville and Southern Indiana that is not tolled, along with the Sherman Minton Bridge, which connects the Bluegrass State with New Albany.
