Mayor Pro Tem Dave Martin would like to make Northshore area residents aware Houston Public Works will begin a street rehabilitation project on Monday, November 8th, beginning on Grand Oaks Drive. The scope of work includes rehabbing the concrete streets of Grand Oaks Drive, Joliet Street, Halifax Street, and Fawn Drive. The cost of the project is $720,000 and is funded through the Dedicated Drainage and Street Renewal Fund. The project is a result of Mayor Turner's Street Rehab Initiative that was launched in September 2020.

Crews will be mobilized on-site beginning Monday, November 8th and the project is anticipated to be completed in 2 to 3 months, weather permitting. Construction activities are expected to take place Monday through Saturday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

As a result of the construction activities, please be aware of flagmen and orange traffic cones that will be put in place on-site to help with traffic flow through the construction zone as the project may require a one-lane closure. Two-way traffic will be maintained at all times.

Businesses and residents will have access to driveways and sidewalks at all times and may experience an increase in noise levels due to trucks and equipment in the area. Please be aware, if an excavation is to be poured with concrete the next morning, the Contractor will work with affected residents to advise them to park on the street in the event the driveway apron is not accessible. Crews will work with residents to minimize disruptions in deliveries, but delivery trucks may need to park on an undisturbed portion of the street.
