Westridge, Braes Terrace project gets new timeline A $26.3 million, three-phase street improve- ment project in the Westridge and Braes Terrace neighborhoods received a new timeline in late January after the Houston Public Works project faced delays for more than a decade. The overview Kenya Williams, a member of Engage Houston, said the project is now expected to go out for another bid in March to find a contractor for the job. The revised timeline for the project is now: • Phase 1: Construction is slated to start this summer and finish in fall 2026. • Phase 2: Final design work is slated to be completed this fall with construction to begin in spring 2026. • Phase 3: Design work will begin summer 2026 and finish summer 2027 with construction to begin in spring 2028.
