Redistricting brought many changes for Harris County precincts 3 and 4 in 2022. Precinct 3 Commissioner Tom Ramsey said 80% of his jurisdiction—which includes more than 6,500 miles of roads—is new territory. Throughout the year, Precinct 3 leadership took on several projects planned by the previous Precinct 4 sta . “We vetted every project we inherited from Precinct 4, which are now [in] Precinct 3, and we think we have made them even better. I think they were all good, and we made them great,” Ramsey told Community Impact . Part of an e ort to construct the remaining two lanes of the Greenhouse Road four-lane concrete boulevard from north of West Road toward Hwy. 290 wrapped up in 2022, and work will continue through the rst quarter of 2023. The comprehensive project cost more than $9.2 million. Several other Cy-Fair projects are slated to break ground this year, including a $7.5 million project to widen the two- lane asphalt Cypress North Houston Road to a four-lane concrete boulevard from Perry Road to Jones Road. The next phase of a project to widen Telge Road from Louetta Road to the Grand Parkway will pick up again this year and continue through at least 2025, Ramsey said. Additionally, a two-phase plan to widen Schiel Road from Mason Road to the Grand Parkway will be a $9 million
