Background and Discussion:

Precinct 3 will utilize this Community Project Funding grant to reconstruct two distinct locations in far east Harris County - Mobile Homes Parkland and Patiowoods. The Mobile Homes Parkland scope of work reconstructs Lochness Dr and Greenbow Lane from a gravel road with undefined drainage to an asphalt roadway with a roadside ditch and driveway culverts. The proposed scope of work occurs within an existing right-of-way. The Patiowoods scope of work reconstructs approximately 1,750 feet of failing, substandard concrete pavement with a concrete curb and gutter roadway with storm sewer.

 

Expected Impact:

Reconstructed roads will improve safety, ensure homes are accessible by emergency vehicles, and improve drainage in these neighborhoods.

 

Alternative Options:

None
