The Combs–Hehl Bridge is a twin span single pier cantilever bridge carrying Interstate 275 across the Ohio River. It connects Cincinnati, Ohio and Campbell County, Kentucky. The main span is 219 meters (720 feet) and the total length of each bridge is 460 meters (1,509 feet). The bridge is named for former governor of Kentucky Bert T. Combs and former Campbell County Judge Executive Lambert Hehl but is commonly referred to by locals as the Coney Bridge as Coney Island is located just off to the right before crossing the bridge into Kentucky.
