The temporary bridge at the Keeler Creek crossing on Lake Creek Road near Troy is open for public use. Thompson Contracting Inc., the county's Troy Road Crew and Acrow Bridge worked at the site to get the bridge open prior to July 4. A permanent structure will be installed at a later date. The bridge was washed out in the Dec. 10, 2025, flooding. Lincoln County officials approved a temporary bridge installation at the location because a new structure would have taken much longer to complete. A permanent structure will be installed at a later date.
