The 1,200 foot long main chamber at Markland Locks and Dam on the Ohio River between Louisville, Kentucky and Cincinnati, Ohio is scheduled to reopen on March 1, 2010. Traffic had been limited to the auxiliary chamber since September. This resulted in long delays for towboats waiting to lock through and created additional labor for already overworked towboat crews. The reopening of the main chamber will be welcomed by industry and labor.
