West Mount Houston Sidewalk and Bikeway

	NEIGHBOORHOOD: Inwood, Acres Homes PROJECT UPDATES: Precinct One conducted a public meeting on February 5, 2020 at Klein Intermediate School to gather feedback and answer questions from the community.  You can view the presentation slides from the meeting here Construction is expected to begin in early 2021. EST.  COMPLETION DATE: Summer 2021 ESTIMATED NO. MILES: 2.4

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Every Harris County community should have access to safe streets and sidewalks. Precinct One is proposing to begin a project in early 2021 that would bring more than 2 miles of sidewalks, shared-use paths and a bikeway along West Mount Houston Road from Bold Forest to West Montgomery; West Montgomery Road from Breen to West Gulf Bank; and TC Jester Boulevard from SH 249 to West Montgomery.

PROJECT BENEFITS:

Sidewalks and bikeways are an important part of making our transportation network safer for people of all ages and abilities, especially for kids getting to schools along West Mount Houston Road. 
Improvements to West Mount Houston, West Montgomery and TC Jester would construct:

• Wider sidewalks that are safer and provide better access to bus routes
• Shared-use paths for both pedestrians and people on bikes
• A bikeway that is safer for people of all ages and abilities.
• New crosswalks for safely crossing the street.
