It looks like the expansion of Broadway(FM 518 from Kirby to Kingsley) is almost complete; however I have not noticed any possible installation of street lights on the north side of this thoroughfare. The south side has plenty of lighting during night time(they were installed way before the expansion) and now north side is completely dark. I do not think this is a good way to light this major thoroughfare. This is also a safety issue especially they installed sidewalks on both sides and for those who use this amenity on the north side at night; it might be very dangerous and scary. The least the city can do is to reduce the numbers of streets lights from the south side and add that number to the north side since the spacing between each light poles, on south side, seem to be very close to each other. Thus the city will not pay extra for it. I recently stumbled across the city's street lights request form. No matter how we resolve this issue; we DO need lights on that side. The link of the request form: http://www.cityofpearland.com/vertical/Sit...30F64D80%7D.PDF and I wonder if any of pearland bloggers would be more interested in submitting it and following it up since I am very busy lately. Thanks.

I believe they are drilling a well for a water tower for the area; it might probably look like the one at cullen and broadway adjacent to the fire station. Because Pearland is planning to build a water storage site on kirby south of broadway/518. This tower seems to match the location of the would-be water tower.
