When a county receives monies pursuant to the County Bridge and Road Improvement Act, a county shall give priority to reconstructing, replacing, or closing those bridges in the county that are rated less than three (3) tons or fifteen (15) tons or less for those bridges on school bus routes. Bridge and road replacement or reconstruction projects shall be selected by the individual boards of county commissioners and shall be based on a countywide assessment of bridge and road reconstruction and replacement needs.
