samagon Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 (edited) not sure on the timetable, but I'm guessing this year as the Idylwood civic club is having a guest from TXDOT talking about it on their next monthly call. potential safety modifications as well. also these streets: https://www.eastenddistrict.com/economic-development/capital-improvement-plan/ thanks @hindesky Edited February 2, 2022 by samagon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samagon Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 current estimate is that bids for the project will be Q1 2023, and project will commence Q2. it's at about 30% planning phase. no footprint change, they do intend to lower the roadway so that the curb profile will again be 6", which is said will help with safety.

samagon Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 awesome, glad to see other streets in the area are being improved as well. I'll change the title, and update my original post with your link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilcal Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Quote Lockwood St., between Harrisburg and I-45 complete repaving. I mean.... METRO is about to tear that up (in a few years) to put in the BRT lanes. Surely that is to be done in conjunction with them. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would the contractors make their profit targets if they only tore it up once? 😛 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samagon Posted February 3, 2022 Author Share Posted February 3, 2022 interesting, I saw a surveyor truck at Elgin/Lockwood (under the i45/spur/train) taking measurements. I wonder if it is related to any of this stuff? considering the number of people who pedestrian, and cycle on that road to get to/from UH, I hope the city and Metro are taking this into consideration.
