Reconstruction of South Post Oak Road Bridge over Sims Bayou Experiences Delays
Sep 26th, 2014
Reconstruction of South Post Oak Road Bridge over Sims Bayou Experiences Delays
The Harris County Flood Control District has experienced project delays during reconstruction of the bridge that crosses Sims Bayou at South Post Oak Road, between Heatherbrook Drive and Trafalgar Drive. We appreciate the public's patience while we complete the project and apologize for any inconvenience caused during your daily travels.
The South Post Oak bridge (northbound and southbound) is being reconstructed as part of the Sims Bayou Federal Flood Damage Reduction Project. The first phase of construction (from April 2012 through August 2013) replaced the two-lane northbound bridge.
During the current and final phase of construction, the two-lane southbound bridge has been closed for approximately one year, and traffic detoured to the newly-constructed northbound bridge where it runs one lane in each direction. This second phase was estimated to be completed in early to mid-2014, but the project has been delayed by challenges experienced with the installation of a waterline and some inclement weather. The Flood Control District now estimates that the bridge project will be completed by the end of 2014, and the newly-completed southbound bridge will be open to traffic at that time.
Please note: Road closures and construction schedules are subject to change. The Flood Control District will notify the public if there are modifications to this schedule.
The Flood Control District communicates bridge closure schedules to the media and to the public in advance of each phase of the Sims Bayou federal project. Motorists are encouraged to be alert, to pay attention to all posted street and lane closures and to follow traffic detours in the area.
