Bike and pedestrian trails

As a part of the White Oak Bayou elevation project, TxDOT will build a two-mile long 10-foot wide shared-use path along the south side of White Oak Bayou connecting to the existing trail system. This enhanced pedestrian and bicycle connectivity with improved trail access will have upgraded pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure on the Houston Avenue Bridge.

Closure Notice: MKT trail bridge

The MKT trail bridge is currently closed. We are working with the contractor and awaiting details specific to the repairs and viable detours. Safety is TxDOT's highest priority, and we want to minimize the impact to the traveling public and the community. Once we have an approved plan, we will share the estimated timeline, details and detours needed for the implementation of the repairs to the MKT Bridge.

For questions or concerns you can contact the TxDOT Houston District Public Information Office at HOU-PIOWebMail@txdot.gov or 713-802-5076.
