The court approved a contract with Texas Materials Group Inc. for rehabilitation of Baucom Road and Oak Branch Road in Road & Bridge Precinct 3 for $1,051,361.96, with costs split evenly between the precinct and the Road Improvement Project expense line. Commissioner Ponder described traffic counts (about 13,000 vehicles per week on North Oak Branch) and said county crews will handle ditching and prep while the contractor performs the overlay and hot‑mix tie‑in work.
"So I think it's time that we make that road better," Commissioner Ponder said, explaining the impetus for the project and the plan for coordination with prior work to tie into existing surfaces near city limits. The court approved the contract unanimously.
