Background and Discussion:

Re-building the traffic signal at the intersection of West Little York Road at Addick Satsuma Road is a project that aims to improve the operation of the intersection and better facilitate pedestrian activities. The service outlet location statement is needed to establish electrical service from CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC to power the traffic signal.

 

Expected Impact:

Approval of the service outlet location statement will allow CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC to provide electrical service to the traffic signal, which is needed to enhance operations at the intersection of West Little York Road at Addick Satsuma Road.

 

 

 

 

Alternative Options:

All traffic signals require a power source, which is typically obtained through CenterPoint Energy Houston Electric, LLC.  Alternative options are to place a generator, which is not reliable, or to not install traffic signals at the intersection. Both options will negatively impact operations and increase delay of the intersection.

 

County Strategic Plan Goal:  2. Connect our community with safe, reliable, equitably distributed, and well-maintained infrastructure.

County Strategic Plan Objective: F: Ensure safety and security for all using the county’s transportation network in alignment with the County’s Vision Zero plan.
