If a public bridge has been built or maintained by one or more municipal corporations and it appears to the county commissioners that the care, maintenance and responsibility of the bridge is greater than it is reasonable that the municipal corporations should be responsible for, the county commissioners may enter the bridge upon record as a county bridge to be maintained, supervised and controlled by the county free and without charge.
