| Description | The I-45 NHHIP is designed to create additional roadway capacity to manage congestion, enhance safety, and improve mobility. The project spans I-45 from I-69 to Beltway 8 North, including I-69 improvements between Spur 527 and I-45 in Harris County, Texas. This encompasses the reconstruction of the downtown freeway system, including I-45, I-69, I-10 and SH 288. I-45 will be rerouted from the west side of downtown Houston to run parallel with I-69 and I-10 until it exits the downtown area and continues north. The public meeting will focus on Segment 1 and Segment 2 of the NHHIP, and the status of activities and requirements under the Voluntary Resolution Agreement (VRA) between TxDOT and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). View the map depicting the full project limits, including each of the three segments. Environmental studies and project updates are available online at the project webpage.
