The SH 249 project will be constructed between the greater Houston area and the Brazos Valley to address rising traffic levels, reduce the potential for crashes and improve overall safety.
Planned Improvements
The planned four-lane, freeway-type roadway will include controlled-access overpasses and underpasses at major intersections and a median separating each direction of traffic.
Project Goals
The project aims to improve the regional and local movement of
people and goods in Grimes County and Southeast-Central Texas. It
will help address the anticipated transportation needs of the area
for the next 20-30 years while preserving the rural environment of
Grimes County and enhancing travel safety throughout the corridor.
