KY 69 runs from Bluff Lane in rural Ohio County to Indiana State Road 237 on the Bob Cummings – Lincoln Trail Bridge at the Kentucky-Indiana state line near Hawesville via the cities of Centertown, Hartford, Dundee, Fordsville, and Hawesville.
KY 69 once connected with a junction with KY 277 just northeast of Central City, in Muhlenberg County through a ferry on the Green River. [2][3] Ferry service was discontinued sometime before 1970.
KY 69 also once connected to Cannelton, Indiana from Hawesville via a ferry on the Ohio River.[4] This ferry was replaced with the Lincoln Trail Bridge when it opened to traffic in 1966.
