Many of the county-maintained bridges are made of wood with steel rein forcement like this one on Bird Pond Road. Some of the . used to be safe bridges are in need of improvement, but the necessary funds are not always available. Walter Wilcox, county commissioner for Precinct 2, says this bridge is sturdier than it looks.

Even if federal funding doesn’t ime through, the county commis- lelin oners say the oil companies pres- nteM itly drilling wells in Brazos County be bringing more money into area. Some of this revenue will d to the county commissioners for foad and bridge maintenance, Stasny says. Though the oil wells will bring ftiore money into the county for the 111 Bads and bridges, the drilling oper- ' ,I|L Bions are tearing up the roads and weaking down some of the bridges 1 siiSB Precincts 2 and 3, especially ntv 'oimd Kurten. But the oil companies are cooperating with the county', Cargill says. They are replacing damaged bridges with new ones and are help ing to repair the roads. The oil dialling equipment is caus ing extensive damage to bridges, but farm equipment amd heavy trucks are also damaging other bridges in the county. County bridges are dangerous, Stasny says, but few accidents occur on them. Department of Public Safety records for 1977 indicate only two accidents occurred on or at county bridges during that year. Both of these occurred in the early morning hours and both drivers in volved were driving above a safe speed limit.
