Area leaders joined Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Aug. 19 in celebrating the re-opening of the Cow Creek Bridge after the bridge was washed out by catastrophic floods last month. The bridge was rapidly rebuilt to completion in 29 days.
“This is what Texas is all about – we get things done,” said Abbott in a statement. “In just a short period of time, crews put together the pieces, finished construction, and got this bridge completed.
“Because this bridge was completed so quickly, it will ensure that we recon- nect communities and get things back to normal for all the people who were affected.”
