SERVICE DETAILS

Our team assisted the client through the Joint Referral Committee (JRC) process to facilitate the abandonment of Bettis Road in addition to relocating a storm sewer system with an outfall location in an adjacent Harris County Flood Control District (HCFCD) right-of-way. Our team also relocated overhead powerlines and provided traffic mitigation measures to offset the development’s impact at the intersection of Westheimer and Mid Lane.

Additional features of the project included coordinating the installation of private street lights and developing and getting approval for an emergency access plan.
