HMP&L rolling out high-speed fiber to neighborhood north of downtown

Henderson Municipal Power & Light announced that its new high-speed fiber internet service is now available for people living just north of the downtown area, with service to become available in other parts of the city in the coming weeks and months.

HMP&L Fiber is available now in an area bordered to the south by Fourth Street, to the west by the Ohio River, extending north as far as the cloverleaf and including some streets east of North Green Street, including much of Kimsey Lane.

The service is available to homes in that area for $79.95 per month for 1-gigabit service or $109.95 for 2-gigabit service. Fiber home phone service with free unlimited local and long-distance service is available for $14.95 per month.

More details, including a map showing the status of fiber installation for all parts of the city, is available at www.hmplfiber.com. Residents can sign up for service at that website or by calling 270-631-0640.

HMP&L General Manager Brad Bickett said the next area to go live for fiber, in about two weeks, will be several blocks of downtown between Second and Fourth streets, extending from the river to about Ingram Street.

Homes in all areas of the city will have access to fiber service by June 2025, according to Brian Hardesty, HMP&L’s chief technology officer. Updates will be posted on HMP&L’s Facebook page.

Twin Bridges to be inspected in August, expect delays

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says that a contractor will perform a routine inspection of both U.S. 41 bridges over the Ohio River, also known as the “Twin Bridges”, during the month of August.

This will result in lane restrictions and possible traffic delays, said a release from the cabinet.

Palmer Engineering plans to begin inspection of the northbound bridge at 9 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 5, the release said.

Inspectors will be on the northbound bridge from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. through Aug. 10, and motorists should anticipate traffic being restricted to one lane during those hours, said the release.

Inspectors will return on Aug. 19, this time to begin inspection of the southbound bridge. The work will follow the same schedule, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., as what is planned on the northbound bridge, ending on Saturday, Aug. 24, said the release.

Transportation officials urge drivers to watch for signage and other traffic control devices as they approach the bridge. Caution is necessary when workers and equipment are present close to the flow of traffic, said the release.

The northbound bridge opened to traffic in 1932, while its counterpart opened in 1965. Around 43,000 vehicles use the Twin Bridges to cross between Kentucky and Indiana every day.
