EHRA conducted a traffic engineering study to identify the impacts of a proposed master development located near the intersection of FM 1488 and Peoples Road in the City of Conroe.
The purpose of this project was to convert the existing at-grade crossing of Brazoria County Road 56 (CR 56) and State Highway 288 (SH 288) into a diamond interchange that includes a new overpass bridge and providing access to the newly developed Meridiana Development. Coordination with TXDOT, area landowners, utility companies, and Brazoria County was integral in obtaining approval and acceptance of the project. The main design challenge for this project was to accommodate double intersections on the west side of SH 288 to tie into existing access roads with two-way traffic and a new southbound on-ramp within a close proximity. EHRA coordinated with TxDOT throughout the project from preliminary concepts for the intersection and bridge through final design and construction. Each component of this project was designed in accordance with TxDOT standards and criteria.
Project totaled 640 acres including 1256 Residential Lots. EHRA designed, created construction plans, publicly bid and preformed Construction management.
The West Houston Association Tri-County Judges Forum took place Wednesday at the Houston Marriot Westchase where Judges Emmet, Hebert and Duhon gave a "state of the counties" to all in attendance. The general consensus was that the tri counties fared well considering the epic rainfall that took place in a short time brought by Hurricane Harvey. Attendee, Jim Russ, said that the audience was eager to hear what each judge had to contribute. "We appreciate all of their efforts," said Russ. "And we support them 110 percent."
