The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Houston District is proposing design changes to the approved alignment of SH 99 from SH 288 to I-45 in Brazoria and Galveston Counties. SH 99 Grand Parkway Segment B is an environmentally approved, yet-to-be-constructed, 28-mile, four-lane, controlled access toll road with intermittent frontage roads. It will extend from I-45 South (the Gulf Freeway) in League City, toward SH 35 in Alvin, and on to SH 288 (the South Freeway) near Rosharon, passing through Galveston and Brazoria counties. The proposed changes cover a total project length of 13.8 miles.
Proposed Improvements
- Two diamond interchanges and four overpasses added between I 45 and SH 35 on the new location portion of the project.
- A shift of the FEIS alignment to the north along a Draft EIS alignment between Hobbs Road and Calder Road to avoid homes built on FEIS alignment.
- Update the direct connectors and main land connections at SH 35.
- Design modifications at the BNSF RR.
- The inclusion of approximately 43 stormwater detention ponds along Grand Parkway Segment B1 project limits.
Anticipated Next Steps
- Right-of-way acquisition in Fall 2024
