County-Road Driveways Need Road and Bridge Review

A new driveway onto a Guadalupe County road needs Road and Bridge review before it is used. The driveway form asks whether the access is residential or commercial, and the county inspects the culvert or driveway work.

The timing matters too. The permit becomes null and void if the driveway is not built within 12 months of the issue date. For digging or utility work in a county right-of-way, the excavation packet is a separate step. Talk to Road and Bridge before you cut an entrance or schedule trench work near a county road.
