Hays County commissioners to discuss Fisher Store Bridge

Hays County officials announced on Tuesday that the Commissioners Court will hold a special meeting this week to discuss and potentially take action on a project to replace the Fisher Store Bridge, which was destroyed in the Memorial Day weekend floods. The bridge provided a vital crossing of the Blanco River, and county officials have been eager to implement both interim and long-term solutions as quickly as possible in order to ease the burden on travelers in the southwestern region of the county. According to the announcement, some of the discussion – which is likely to address issues of right-of-way, design and construction – may go into executive session. The meeting will be held Friday, July 24 at 1 p.m. at the Hays County Courthouse, Room 301.
