JASPER COUNTY — The Jasper County Board of Commissioners discussed county bridges and roads during its most recent meeting.
County officials were recently notified that it will receive $818,252.25 in funding from the latest round of Community Crossings Grants. As stipulated by the state, that money will be applied to upgrading county asphalt roads only, though the commissioners were hoping to use some of the money to covert the county’s gravel roads into asphalt.
The county has 350 miles of gravel roads. Officials applied for $1 million in Community Crossings Grants, but got nearly $200,000 less than that.
County officials would still like to slowly convert gravel roads into asphalt in the future.
