Here are the top three stories today in Cincinnati:

1. A new Cincinnati restaurant offers a unique twist on chicken and waffles. Chick'nCone at 10250 Gateway Place is serving chicken in a waffle cone. The new restaurant will be at the foot of the $50 million Approach at Summit Park development adjacent to a suburban park. (WKRC TV Cincinnati)
2. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear presents two more awards for engineering excellence for the Brent Spence Bridge that connects Covington with Cincinnati across the Ohio River. The awards are for reopening the bridge under budget and ahead of schedule. The bridge needed repairs after two semi-trailers collided and burned the bridge in Nov. 2020. (Eagle 99.3 FM WSCH)
3. Cincinnati Metro is offering fare-free rides next week as a way to encourage Cincinnati residents to use public transportation. The fare-free rides are a limited relief to residents during the recent fuel price increase that is hitting the community's wallets. The rides will be fare-free on Mar. 20 through Mar. 26.
