A 2,000-foot road will be constructed between FM 518 and Hwy. 146 in Seabrook to create a new access point for residents and visitors who want to access retail and entertainment businesses. The new road will open up land for future commercial development and create an alternative route for traffic as Hwy. 146 is widened over the next four years. If necessary, the project could be expanded to include a new road segment that would go south to Hwy. 96. The project is nearing completion, a city official said.
