A bid to improve the low water crossings on Adler Road was approved during the May 13 Boerne City Council meeting. The details According to the meeting agenda, the two low water crossings on Adler Road at No Name Creek and Currey Creek are frequently overtopped, creating
unsafe conditions for the public and emergency services. The bid was awarded to Gage & Cade Con- struction, LLC, for around $4.76 million. The project is funded through the city, alongside a $1.5 million contribution from Kendall County. Construction for both culverts is expected to take 120 days, starting at Currey Creek.
