During its July 30 meeting, the Texas Transportation Commission approved $3.8 million in funds for FM 2920 improvements in Tomball.
The commission awarded three construction contracts to Smith & Company Highway Contractors to repair and overlay a 3.2-mile stretch of FM 2920 and Business 249, said Kristina Hadley, public information officer for TxDOT's Houston district.
As part of the project, TxDOT has allocated $1.72 million to repair the base of the road and place overlay mix on Business 249 from 0.28 mile north of FM 2920 to 1.1 mile south of FM 2920. In addition, TxDOT has allotted $210,470 to carry out the same improvements on a 0.1-mile portion of FM 2920 from the Hwy. 249 frontage road to Business 249.
The third portion of the project, which is estimated to cost $1.88 million, also includes base repair and overlay mix improvements on a 1.7-mile section of FM 2920 from Business 249 to Howard Street.
“These projects aim to relieve traffic congestion, improve safety and help beautify roads in the Houston district,” Hadley said.
