Washed away
A Texas Department of Transportation official glances at damage inflicted on a portion of a bridge along Highway 21 near FM 2001 in Niederwald that was affected by floodwaters on May 26. Due to heavy rains and flooding on Thursday, the bridge was compromised and was subsequently closed, according to Hays County. TxDOT spokesperson Kelli Reyna said Friday a timeline for repair and cost of the bridge hasn’t been determined at this time. Traffic can detour via State Highway 80, SH 142 and the SH 130/U.S. 183 frontage roads, according to Hays County. (photo by Moses Leos III)
