The Court is asked to accept a transmittal notifying it of a grant application submitted to the Texas Department of Transportation for $73,800,000 to fund a rail grade separation at the South Lockwood Drive rail crossing, with a $4,100,000 match from Precinct 2 and a $4,100,000 match from Union Pacific Railroad.

What it means for you

If approved, Harris County would formally acknowledge the grant application; if the grant is awarded, funds would go toward separating South Lockwood Drive traffic from the rail crossing, reducing conflicts between vehicles and trains.

Outcome

This item was accepted.
