Kansas Statutes Chapter 68. Roads and Bridges § 68-1104. Construction and maintenance of bridges and culverts on county and township roads; payment of cost

The board of county commissioners shall construct, reconstruct, repair and maintain all county bridges and county culverts located on county roads and township roads and the cost of such work shall be paid from the bridge fund of the county. All township culverts shall be constructed, reconstructed, repaired and maintained by the township board of highway commissioners and the cost of such work shall be paid from the road fund of the township. Except as hereinafter provided, all approaches to culverts and bridges on township roads shall be constructed, reconstructed, and maintained by the township board of highway commissioners and the cost of such work shall be paid from the road fund of the township, except that where the payment of the costs of constructing such approaches has been authorized by a majority vote of the electors of the county in which such township is located prior to the effective date of this act, said cost of construction shall be paid from the county's bridge fund, within the limit of moneys authorized by such election. The board of county commissioners may elect to pay, from the bridge fund of the county, for the construction, reconstruction or maintenance of any approach to a culvert or bridge on a township road, in which event the township board of highway commissioners shall not be responsible therefor.
