Lubbock County has taken significant steps to enhance its road administration following a recent Commissioners' Court meeting. The court approved the adoption of a new Road Commissioner System, aimed at improving the management and oversight of county roads. This decision was made with a vote of 4-1, reflecting a strong consensus among the commissioners.

In addition to the new system, the court also reclassified and retitled key positions within the road and bridge department. A civil engineer position was moved to the roads department, and the title of the director of road and bridge was updated to reflect its new responsibilities. This restructuring is expected to streamline operations and improve efficiency in road management.

The meeting culminated in the appointment of Rashadi Moore as the new director of consolidated road and bridge, a role that will see him oversee the newly established Road Commissioner System. His appointment was met with unanimous support from the commissioners, signaling confidence in his ability to lead the department effectively.

These changes are poised to enhance Lubbock County's infrastructure management, ensuring that road maintenance and development are handled with greater expertise and oversight. As the county moves forward, the focus will be on implementing these new systems and supporting the newly appointed director in his role.
