AUSTIN (KXAN) — The Texas Department of Transportation has been making road repairs in the area following flooding, but some repairs will take longer than others.
RM 1431 in the Lago Vista area sustained significant damage to a bridge over Cow Creek and TxDOT says they hope to have it repaired and back open before school starts.
“That’s really pushing it, because that’s really a matter of weeks away. But we think we can get the bridge built in a matter of weeks, as opposed to drawing it out over a number of months, or even years, as a typical bridge would take,” said Brad Wheelis with TxDOT.
Northbound Loop 360 has the right lane closed after part of the roadway eroded near Spicewood Springs Road.
US 377 between Mason and Junction also sustained damage, but crews were able to make short-term repairs to reopen the roadway for now. Long-term repairs are expected in the future.
