Commissioners, road staff flag multiple county road and bridge issues
Summary
Smith County road supervisors and commissioners discussed drainage and structural problems on several roads and bridges, including an intersection on 140 Rd acting as a water dam and identified needs on C Rd, L Rd and 310 Rd.
County road staff and commissioners reviewed a series of maintenance and structural concerns across Smith County during the March 16 meeting.
Glenn Timmons reported that the roadway on 140 Rd, west of K Rd, sits higher than the adjacent field and "is acting as a water dam," prompting discussion of drainage or grading remedies (SEG 002). Commissioners and road supervisors then identified potholes and bridge concerns on C Rd and L Rd, a bridge on L Rd between 230 Rd and 240 Rd, and deterioration needing dozer or blade operator work on R Rd and 310 Rd.
Commissioner Brady Peterson noted that U Rd and R Rd need reshaping and restoration of the roadway crown; Commissioner Jim Gwennap flagged intersections at 160 Rd & N Rd and 90 Rd east of V Lane and windrows on Y Rd south of 90 Rd. Staff outlined a sequencing plan (start on 110 Rd, then 160/ N intersection) and said they are awaiting a haul-material quote from Sheldon Remus.
