The Payne County Board of County Commissioners have approved work on two bridge projects in District 1.
One of the projects replaces a bridge that District 1 Commissioner Zach Cavett said was washed out by the May 2019 flood. Cavett expects most of the cost of that bridge replacement to be reimbursed by FEMA.
The commissioners first approved the transfer of steel beams removed from the I-40 Crosstown Expressway in Oklahoma City that was closed in 2012.
