Mayor Sylvester Turner announced Monday that an agreement has been reached on the North Houston Highway Improvement Project, which would widen and reconfigure I-45 from downtown Houston north the Beltway 8.
Reducing the NHHIP Footprint During Detailed DesignAccording to a release, the NHHIP is designed from IH 45 North Corridor from Beltway 8 North to and around Downtown Houston. It will provide connectivity for residents and businesses within and beyond the State of Texas.
To ensure the community is involved in the project, TxDOT will engage the public throughout the period of construction to ensure communities are informed about developments, congestion, transportation issues and other related matters, according to the release. The public will also be able to submit comments to TxDOT throughout the life of the project.
“The City of Houston has spoken as a voice for our residents, and I will continue to support the project as long as my goals of resilience, multimodal transportation and equity are met,” Turner said. “Coming together under this MOU provides a path forward that will benefit us all.”
