FORT HOOD TEXAS, Coryell, Texas
Inventory: FHWA NBI 2024 · last ETL August 2026
FHWA NBI record, refreshed with each annual release.
WEST RANGETNK RD in Coryell, Texas sits above 49% of rated Texas bridges on inventory load rating (30 t), while its 1950 build year is earlier than 71% of Coryell's recorded-year cohort (204 bridges).
WEST RANGETNK RD in Coryell, Texas is rated Poor in the FHWA's 2024 National Bridge Inventory. Built in 1950, it carries 3 rated components on the inspecting agency's 0-9 scale, and its weakest reported component scores 4. The lowest applicable rating sets the federal condition category, so this Poor result describes the weakest reported component rather than the structure as a whole. No NBI category is a closure decision or a live crossing-safety verdict.
