Background and Discussion:
Commissioners Court approved the Harris County Vision Zero Action Plan on September 13, 2022. The Harris County Vision Zero Action Plan has identified corridors and intersections on the High Injury Network to prioritize safety improvement projects. As part of Commissioner Adrian Garcia’s Revive2Thrive initiative, Precinct 2 proposed to conduct a corridor study on Veterans Memorial Drive from Beltway 8 to SH 249 (3.3 miles) and Fallbrook Drive from Ann Louise Road to Greens Crossing Boulevard (3.0 miles).
Expected Impact:
The Veterans Memorial and Fallbrook Drive corridor study will include extensive public engagement; in depth safety analysis; and concept development of an inclusive, resilient, and safe corridor. The study will provide engineering solutions for improving safety along the corridor and at intersections for all roadway users, including bicyclists and pedestrians, who are the most vulnerable roadway users. The study will also provide preliminary cost estimates for implementing the preferred corridor concept for Veterans Memorial and Fallbrook Drives.
Alternative Options:
Roadway improvements on Veterans Memorial Drive and Fallbrook Drive will be conducted without a concept developed through community engagement and analysis.
Alignment with Goal(s):
_ Justice and Safety
X Economic Opportunity
_ Housing
_ Public Health
X Transportation
_ Flooding
X Environment
