Harris County Transportation Master Plan

Harris County, Texas

DCCM continues to lead the creation of the transportation master plan on behalf of Harris County. This plan, which applies to the County’s unincorporated areas only, remains the first to identify and present a blueprint for transportation system development, including update to the current interim thoroughfare plan as well as an active transportation plan. Using a combination of data resources, reviews with community partners, documentation of existing plans and their priorities for transportation network improvements, the DCCM team will facilitate preparation of a 20-year blueprint to guide network implementation and right-of-way preservation activities. This project, which remains in progress, will include a host of team partners developing data and information for sharing with the public, local officials and other interested parties. To date, the team facilitated review of the current network/system development including analysis of network needs based upon a methodology to minimize gaps, improve connectivity and travel options. This review includes meetings with the County Engineer working team, precinct offices and other interested stakeholders. Upcoming activities include completing the review of system needs, identification of critical links and needed updates, along with analysis of the planning-level updates to current standards and practices followed by the County Engineer’s office to aid in project implementation.
