To be honest this is my take on it. If the county VACATES the road - essentially they are removing their easement rights from title and the land rights and right of ways revert back to the current owner. In my state all county roads are owned by the landowner to the center of the road (unless they own the property on both sides - as you do) - the county only has a right of way across it.
The owner that is pushing for this vacating may not realize he is removing his assess to his property - unless he has access from the opposite side of the creek where the bridge used to be. If he wants to maintain access across your land, he might be able to demand it, but he will have to pay you for the now private right of way - especially since it was his actions that removed public right of way.
Kansas has gone through this with many abandoned railroad lines. The problem is in some cases where the railroad has abandoned their right of way (specifically written for use by the railroad) that state laid claim to the right of way for their rails to trails program. Now instead of an occasional train (or no train in many cases) the landowners have hikers and bicyclist travelling down the old railroad bed and setting up picnics pastures next to the RR path or just checking out what you have on your property along with being worried some fool will jump the fence and try to pet one your bulls or play with one of your calves and get chased by a protective mother cow.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
