The other major factor will be the reconstruction to widen the Hwy. 290 overpass at Skinner Road, which will potentially cause additional tra—c delays. Additionally, work to widen the Grand Parkway from Hwy. 249 to Hwy. 290 will also likely intersect with the timeline for the Greenhouse Road work, Eric Heppen, director of engineering at Harris County Precinct 3, said.

Multiple o—cials said they anticipate the most intensive portion of construction will be constructing a tunnel-like underpass structure beneath the Union PaciŒc railroad which runs parallel to Hwy. 290. “The project will entail going under the railroad and any time that has to happen there will be a lot of steps to get to the Œnish line,” Martone said.

“This project will transform the way trac travels around the US 290 corridor in Cypress.”
