South Mays Street Bridge
Posted October 24, 2020, by Philip C Walker (pcwalker [dot] tx [at] gmail [dot] com)

This bridge was widened from it's original design to accommodate the widening of US81/US79 that was routed through here. There is another bridge that pre-dates this one, but it was used only to cross the creek. It appears to still be there. There's quite a few of these concrete bridges sitting abandoned throughout Williamson County that once was used for what was then SH 2.
