PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Safe trails can help connect communities. A wide pedestrian bridge over Sims Bayou is being planned to help connect neighborhoods to the Sims Bayou greenway and a future park and recreation area at the Hill at Sims detention basin.  This bridge would be located near Airport and Scott streets.

PROJECT BENEFITS:

A pedestrian bridge over Sims Bayou would: 

  • Expand opportunities for healthy recreation
  • Create a safe pathway for active transportation through Sunnyside 
  • Connect neighborhoods to recreational opportunities, health care centers, and local businesses.

PROJECT UPDATES:

A pedestrian bridge over Sims Bayou is currently in the design phase as part of the Hill at Sims Park project

A community meeting was held on August 5th. A video of the meeting can be viewed here.

Construction should begin in early 2023.
