Flood waters collapse bridge in Uvalde County

UVALDE, Texas – A bridge in Uvalde County has collapsed after high floodwaters overwhelmed the FM 481 crossing, according to an aerial image released by the Texas Department of Public Safety.

• More dangerous Texas floods expected after at least 2 killed and hundreds of people rescued in high water, governor says

Authorities are urging people to avoid flooded areas, follow all road closures, and never drive around barricades, stressing that fast-moving water can be deceptive and dangerous.

The collapse comes as parts of the Hill Country continue to deal with another round of dangerous flooding—just over a year after the catastrophic July 4, 2025 floods.
