TRANSPORTATION UPDATES Proposed elevation project on I 10 spurs concerns
COMPILED BY SOFIA GONZALEZ
UPCOMING PROJECTS
KIAM ST.
Some Heights-area residents are concerned about a proposed $347 million project by the Texas Depart- ment of Transportation that involves elevating I-10 in an e ort to mitigate future roadway ood risks from White Oak Bayou. The state- and federally funded project would stretch about 1.8 miles from Heights Boulevard to I-45, TxDOT Public Information O cer Deidrea George told Community Impact Newspaper . If the project moves forward, the number of lanes on I-10 in the targeted area would not change, George said. The existing lane con guration—which includes ve 12-foot-wide lanes in each direction, a 10-foot-wide inside lane, 10-foot- wide outside shoulders and one 14-foot-wide high-occupancy vehicle lane in each direction—would be reconstructed at an elevated level, she said. According to TxDOT documents, a 21.7-acre detention pond will be located under the elevated area on the north side of I-10 between Taylor Street and Houston Avenue along with a 10-foot-wide shared-use path for pedestrians and cyclists that will connect to the existing trail system on the north side of I-10 along White Oak Bayou between Studemont Street and I-45. According to TxDOT’s presenta- tion, the proposed elevated area has repeatedly been a ected by major rain events, such as Tropical Storms Allison and Imelda and Hurricane Harvey. Once ooded from White Oak Bayou, the main lanes become

impassable. Kevin Strickland with CURBS Houston—a community group of Heights residents seeking to create a safer neighborhood—said he has concerns about TxDOT’s e orts to keep I-10 from ooding at that point. He said I-10 becoming a “lake” during Hurricane Harvey saved area neigh- borhoods from ooding. “[The project] doesn’t make sense,” Strickland said. “It’s completely unnecessary.” Strickland also said TxDOT’s proposal is slowing down the METR- ORapid University Corridor project—a rapid bus transit line that is projected to run from Westchase Park & Ride to Tidwell Transit Center. However, George said TxDOT is doing its due diligence through collaborative partnerships with other entities. Resident Matt Tetlow said he does not support the project. Along the Washington Avenue corridor, where Tetlow lives, he said there are already issues with noise from roads. He said
he thinks the problem will worsen with this project. “There’s a lot of noise impacts that really hurt people who live where I live,” Tetlow said. “I’d like to see us do something smarter. ... This is an organization that is a hammer, and everything looks like a nail—build it wider, bigger, taller, right? I’d like to see them take more local input to nd win-win projects.” George said TxDOT is open to public feedback, and those who would like to give input can do so until Sept. 9. Once the public comment period ends, the project will go through a series of phases. From this fall through fall 2023, environmental documents and a detailed schematic design will be developed. In winter 2023, an environmental decision will be made, and in summer 2024, construction is anticipated to begin. “This is why we’re here,” George said. “We certainly are taking all of [the concerns] into account.”

Plans for the second bridge at Patterson Street have not yet developed. After launching an Instagram page to raise awareness, Nunez said people were immediately excited, calling the project something that is “missing from the community.” “So this happened to be [a proj- ect] that seemed like it was really low-hanging fruit because it’s so easy to do, yet it’s so transformative,” Nunez said. The two bridges would also provide improved access to transit stops and safer access to schools, businesses and churches along the Washington Corridor, Nunez said. ATOTB garnered support from
PATTERSON PARK
Community advocates came together at Patterson Park on Aug. 10 to raise awareness for a project that would connect the Heights area to neighborhoods south of I-10 with two new bridges. The group that set up the meeting, A Tale of Two Bridges, was started by Heights resident Emmanuel Nunez in February. The project calls for building two bridges over White Oak Bayou to give pedestrians and cyclists easier access between the MKT Trail in the Heights and the White Oak Bayou Trail, which runs through the Heights while also connecting to communities south of I-10 and the Bu alo Bayou Trail. There is a 1.3-mile gap between existing bridges over White Oak Bayou in the area: the Cottage Grove bridge and the bridges at Heights Boulevard and Yale Street.

Mayor Sylvester Turner, who said the project is about designing a city for the future that is focused on multi- modal forms of transportation. “It’s about building a resilient city,” Turner said at the Aug. 10 event. Houston Chief Transportation Planner David Fields said the project is in its infancy, but city sta is happy to work on the design and coordina- tion with entities such as the TxDOT. Those who travel by bike do not
have many direct routes, BikeHous- ton Executive Director Joe Cutrufo said. Instead, they are forced to take a roundabout way to nd streets that are safe and connected to trails. Despite being in the early stages of the project, Nunez said he would like to see the two bridges completed by the 2026 World Cup. “I want people to see Houston not as the city of freeways, but as the city of parks,” Nunez said.

Houston votes to place bonds on ballot
Harris County bond to go before voters in November HARRIS COUNTY Members of Harris County Commissioners Court voted 3-2 on Aug. 18 to place $1.2 billion in bonds on the November ballot. The vote cements the 3-2 split vote from the Aug. 2 meeting of Commissioners Court with Precinct 3 Commissioner Tom Ramsey and Precinct 4 Commis- sioner Jack Cagle again opposed to the bond issue. Voters will vote on the three key areas—$900 million for roads, drainage and multimodal transportation; $200 million for parks; and $100 million for public safety facilities—in separate bond referendums. The county bond will appear on the same ballot for voters who live in city of Hous- ton, which approved an ordi- nance Aug. 17 for a $478 million public improvement bond.
HOUSTON In a 16-1 vote, Houston City Council approved an ordinance during its Aug. 17 meeting that orders an election to be held Nov. 8 for Houstonians to vote on $478 million in public improvement bonds. According to the 2022 bond elec- tion memo, projects were identi ed in the 2023-27 capital improvement plans as “future bond elections.” The bulk of the $478 million gure is tied to Proposition A, which would help pay for renovations and mainte- nance at re and police department facilities. Other propositions cover parks, animal care services, public health, general improvements, librar- ies and the solid waste department. Voters can choose which individual propositions to support. Bond funds would also be used to pay for $194 million in already- planned projects that currently have no funding. Included in the propositions is $274 million that could be used for 2028 and beyond. This would help future

ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES Because the avor and e ects of tea can change based on how it is brewed, Chris McKann, owner of The Path of Tea, said new variations are being discovered all the time. TEA LEAF: Traditional teas made from tea leaves vary from white tea on the less ca einated end to the stronger black teas. ROOIBOS: This herbal tea is brewed from the “red bush” plant in South Africa. TISANES: This ca eine-free herbal tea dates back to ancient China and Egypt. OTHER HEALING TEAS: Other teas on the menu are pitched as ways to help with colds and us, sinus issues, and boost the functioning of the lung and liver.

over 140 di erent types of tea, each of which has a di erent taste and can o er a di erent health bene t, Chris said. Some teas have immune system-boosting e ects, while others give energy, he said. The menu features di erent types of white, green, oolong, pu-errh, black and other herbal teas. The shop’s tea leaves come from a variety of countries, mostly from Asia, Chris said. The Path of Tea hosts events regularly, Chris said, including weekly tea tastings, where guests can drink tea samples while Chris explains where the tea leaf comes from and how he makes it. “Sometimes we have people who talk about some health aspect that would t in with tea,” he said. Although Thia has since passed away, Chris said he carries on her legacy at the shop. In the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, people are feeling more stressed than ever, and Chris said he plans to keep relieving people from their anxiety with his tea.
Guests at The Path of Tea can choose their tea cup from a shelf of options.
lifestyles. However, as interest in mental and physical well-being has become more mainstream, McKann said more interest has also been directed at his shop, founded in 2006 in River Oaks as a place for people to stop by, enjoy some tea and take a social break from daily stressors. “People are getting really stressed out,” he said. “And so I’m nding that more people are telling me, ‘Oh my God, this [tea] is nice.’ [We] just have this energy where it’s just more relaxing, right? So they start discovering tea.” The Path of Tea was founded by Chris and his wife, Thia McKann, after the latter was certi ed as a tea master, a designation given to people who demon- strate an understanding of the di erent types of teas and how they are brewed, Chris said.

FROM THE PODCAST Eric Berger Co-founder of Space City Weather
"OUR GOAL WITH THE SITE IS TO KIND OF CUT THROUGH THE NOISE AND FIND THE SIGNAL FOR PEOPLE. IT’S WEATHER FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE BUSY AND MAYBE ONLY REALLY WANT TO FOCUS ON THE WEATHER WHEN THEY HAVE TO MAKE DECISIONS." ERIC BERGER, SPACE CITY WEATHER CO FOUNDER
BY OLIVIA ALDRIDGE
The United States is in the middle of its Atlantic hurricane season, which runs from June 1 to Nov. 30. On the June 24 episode of “The Houston Breakdown,” Com- munity Impact Newspaper ’s weekly local podcast, host Olivia Aldridge spoke with local weather expert Eric Berger about how Houstonians can prepare for hurricane risk. The founder of local forecasting service Space City Weather also dug into the story of his platform’s rise to prominence during Hurricane Harvey in 2017. WHAT DOES SPACE CITY
is happening to them is probably hap- pening to me and my family as well. I think it’s that we built a connection to readers by talking directly to them, not trying to scare them, but by telling them what we know, what we don’t, what we’re watching, and just being really honest and real with people. DID THE PUBLIC RESPONSE TAKE YOU BY SURPRISE? Absolutely. ... I had written about weather at the Houston Chronicle from 2005 to 2015. When I left that year, I founded Space City Weather as a hobby. Then, two years later with Harvey, it really did, as you said, blow up into something much more than that. So yeah, it surprised me how much people really do appreciate that kind of informa- tion and that kind of approach. It certainly just caused [co-founder Matt Lanza] and I to really double down on that and try to be there at all times for people.
WEATHER DO, AND WHAT HAS YOUR JOURNEY WITH IT BEEN? There’s a million places you can get weather information online, on televi- sion and in apps. What we wanted to be was a place you could go to when you really wanted to know what’s important and what’s not. During this time of year, on places like Facebook and other social media, you’ll often see posts [predicting] a hurricane strike in Texas 10 days from now and a lot of things like that. Our goal with the site is to kind of cut through the noise and nd the signal for people. WHY DO YOU THINK SPACE CITY WEATHER FIRST RESO NATED WITH PEOPLE DURING HURRICANE HARVEY? I think it’s the human element. I am rst and foremost a writer; meteorology came much later on for me. I really try to connect with readers. I live in Houston, so whatever
COURTESY ERIC BERGER
WHAT DO YOU THINK WE CAN EXPECT HEADING INTO THIS HURRICANE SEASON? This year looks to be busy again for a number of reasons, principally because La Niña, which is in the Paci c Ocean, looks to be present in August, September and October of this year, which is prime time for Atlantic hurricanes to form. So generally, we can expect a busier season, but Houston can get hit during nonbusy seasons [as well]. HOW CAN PEOPLE PREPARE? I think the most important thing for people to do is to understand the threats to them, their home, where they live and their family. That means
knowing [if you’re in an area] that could be vulnerable to storm surge, and that’s driven primarily by your elevation and how close you are to a body of water or a bayou. ... You need to understand your vulnerabilities now and prepare accordingly. If, for example, you decide [you] need to evacuate for whatever reason, then ... where would you evacuate? How are you going to make reservations? What are you going to bring? How are you going to make sure your pets are taken care of or your families or your parents or your children? You’ve got to think about all that now because when the moment hits, it’s very stressful.
This is an excerpt from an interview for “The Houston Breakdown,” Community Impact Newspaper ’s weekly local podcast, lightly edited for length and clarity. “The Houston Breakdown” is hosted by Olivia Aldridge and released every Friday morning wherever podcasts are available. Listen to the full interview for more of Berger’s insights on topics including space ight in Texas and the importance of building a Spanish-language weather forecasting platform for Houston.
