CR 456 BRIDGE OVER BRUSHY CREEK CLOSED

[Publisher’s Note: The bridge made semi-famous in a scene in the movie “Second-Hand Lions,” and which happens to be an excellent location for a game of Poohsticks, is closed. I am calling for prayers that it can be repaired rather than replaced. If you ever use the bridge, you probably don’t need the map below to know the detour.]

August 6, 2014 (Williamson County, TX) – The CR 456 bridge over Brushy Creek near Coupland has been closed until further notice due to structural concerns. The County is working with the Texas Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration to determine the appropriate path forward regarding the repair or possible replacement the structure.
