The Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky, or TANK, will make several changes to its Licking River Link route starting Saturday, July 11.
The route was instituted following the demolition of the 4th Street Bridge (officially called the KY-8 Bridge) and is offered to riders for free.
The route’s existing stops in Covington will not change, however, several changes will take place in Newport. A complete loop of the route takes about 30 minutes. It operates on weekdays from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. and on weekends from 10 a.m. to 11 p.m.
