Kentucky toll bridges
The RiverLink project[1] links Kentucky with Indiana over the Ohio river. Tolling is implemented on three bridges:
- John F. Kennedy Memorial Bridge (I-65 South)[2]
- Abraham Lincoln Bridge (I-65 North)[3]
- Lewis and Clark Bridge (connecting the Gene Snyder Freeway in Kentucky with State Road 265 in Indiana)[4]
However, the George Rogers Clark Memorial Bridge (Second Street Bridge) and the Sherman Minton Bridge (I-64) do not have tolls.

How to pay missed toll in Kentucky
If you did not have a RiverLink[6]account for tolls in Kentucky, or compatible E-ZPass from other states (such as Indiana E-ZPass), you would be paying a higher toll fee (Invoice is sent to the license plate registered address). To pay the invoice you would need the Invoice Number, License Plate information (State and Number), and a payment method (credit card, debit card, or ACH). But if you were driving a rental car, you would not be able to pay the tolls directly to RiverLink. The invoices for missed tolls for rental cars are sent to the rental car company. Therefore, depending on the rental car agency’s policies, you might have to pay toll charges to your rental company.
