Ask the editor: Will Spring Cypress Road be widened?I received an email from a reader last month who asked if there were any plans to widen Spring Cypress Road. He is concerned the road will become more congested with its proximity to Klein Cain High School, which is due to open in August.

Pamela Rocchi, the director of the Harris County Precinct 4 Capital Improvement Projects Division, said there are a number of projects planned near and along the roadway.

Rocchi said Harris County and the Texas Department of Transportation are planning improvements to the turn lanes and other modifications on the major thoroughfares that intersect Hwy. 249 between Antoine Drive and Spring Cypress Road. Also, Harris County is in the process of designing widening improvements on Spring Cypress Road from Hwy. 249 to east of Hufsmith-Kohrville Road, with the goal to begin construction in 2018.

Are you curious about something related to Spring and Klein? Please send me a note, and I will research it, and it could appear in a future edition.
