MUD 188

EHRA planners, hydrologists and landscape architects worked together to propose an alternative use for the space, re-developing the basin into an amenity pond. EHRA carefully selected native plant materials for both their ability to survive in the harsh conditions of the basin as well as providing filtration for improved storm water quality.

Cutten Green Park Northwest Harris County MUD No.6

This project was the second phase of parks implementation outlined in the District's Parks Master Plan, which was completed by EHRA in 2007. Utilizing the site of a recently demolished former wastewater treatment plant provided an opportunity to create a passive park space for District residents.

Northpark Drive Mobility Project

EHRA completed preliminary engineering, phase one environmental site assessment and schematic development for the widening of Northpark Dr. between US 59 and Woodland Hills Dr. EHRA also provided program management, drainage analysis and design, traffic engineering, environmental documentation and schematic design for the roadway, as well as grade separation at the Loop 494/UPRR railroad crossing.

EHRA conducted traffic operations and access management studies for the Northpark Dr. corridor. This corridor is approximately 2.2 miles long and has major signalized and unsignalized intersections and driveways that access various subdivisions and industrial developments. These studies laid the groundwork for the widening of Northpark Dr. from a four-lane boulevard cross-section to a six-lane boulevard complete street. The new street design includes low impact development drainage, conventional drainage, a grade separation at the UPRR crossing with mechanically stabilized earth retaining walls, two at-grade crossings for bi-directional frontage access, reconstruction of two concrete bridges over a diversion channel, intersection improvements, a roadway-adjacent multiuse path and traffic signal improvements.

Drainage analysis and design included hydrologic and hydraulic studies of both existing and proposed conditions to demonstrate that proposed project components would not adversely affect the 100-year floodplain in the area. The roadway and traffic designs contained horizontal and vertical alignments, cross-sections, plan and profile, sidewalk and bicycle accommodations, intersection layouts, traffic control plans and signing and pavement markings.

As the program management firm, EHRA coordinated with TxDOT, UPRR, the City of Houston Council District E, COH Planning and Development Department, COH Public Works and Engineering Department, Montgomery County, Harris County, HCFCD and area residents throughout the project.

West Road Phase 3 Landscape

EHRA worked with the District to create a comprehensive Parks Master Plan, which included recommendations for the development of over two miles of hike/bike trails adjacent to local streets, and within flood control and utility pipeline easements. The District began implementation of the Plan by prioritizing the beautification of West Road, a major arterial street that runs through the District.

Ventana Lakes Development

Project totaled 640 acres including 1256 Residential Lots. EHRA designed, created construction plans, publicly bid and preformed Construction management.

Solutions Powered by Teamwork

EHRA Engineering

This year has brought exciting growth and opportunities to EHRA Engineering’s Public Infrastructure Team. This includes a strategic and refined structure introduced earlier this year that enhances how we deliver professional engineering services across the Greater Houston region.

The team’s new structure distinguishes its current core service areas: Transportation, Traffic and Structures. Each of our service areas is led by an Assistant Director—Fred Signorelli, PE leading Transportation, Mohammad Huq, PE, PTOE heading Traffic and Carlos Flores, PE leading Structures—giving each discipline room to specialize and grow under this generation of experienced and strong leadership. As our work continues to expand, this structure allows for a focused and collaborative approach, ultimately strengthening the delivery of service we provide to our clients.

Over the past six months, we have welcomed four new team members to the Public Infrastructure Team, and we are excited to be adding three more in early June. This growth not only speaks to the rising demand for our expertise but also to the culture of opportunity we are building within the team.

Our Traffic group continues to meet the growing demand for in-house traffic needs, including Traffic Impact Analyses (TIAs) for many of our new developments and designing traffic signal improvements and safety enhancements for public agency projects across the region.

Our Transportation team plays a key role in supporting the engineering work tied to recently passed bond initiatives within the counties we serve in the Greater Houston region and beyond. Their efforts are complemented by the Structures team, who not only support public infrastructure projects but also oversees internal structural design needs across the firm.

EHRA’s Public Infrastructure Team is a great example of how our in-house, multi-disciplinary approach works so successfully. Many of our public infrastructure projects are multi-faceted and draw from all three of the core services. The strong communication between project managers and their teams allows us to navigate complex challenges more seamlessly and keep things moving forward. This collaborative approach and integrated structure help us deliver thoughtful, well-rounded solutions and reflects the way our entire firm works together across the many disciplines to best serve our clients and communities.

Working closely with the Public Infrastructure team and enhancing this technical expertise is the support of our Government Relations Team comprised of Grant & Government Relations Specialist, Amanda Stevens, and EHRA Consultant and former Fulshear Mayor, Aaron Groff. Their established experience in working directly within both Waller County and Fort Bend County created an invaluable foundation for strengthening relationships within the firm’s targeted counties and municipalities. Their continued efforts and ongoing focus ensures that our engineering efforts align with regional priorities. Their insight and engagement provide valuable direction that empowers our Public Infrastructure team to deliver tailored, high-impact solutions.

At EHRA, we are proud to foster a culture of innovation, professional growth and shared success. As we continue expanding our footprint across the Greater Houston region and into new markets, the momentum within the Public Infrastructure team reflects our broader mission to deliver engineering solutions that support thriving communities and a resilient future.
