Easthaven Boulevard Repairs Schedule
 
Houston, TX - On Monday, July 31, the City of Houston's Public Works & Engineering Department (PWE) will begin performing an asphalt overlay along Easthaven Boulevard, from College Avenue to Canniff Street. Due to varying conditions of the roadway, the project will be split into two separate sections: College Avenue to Tallyho Road and Tallyho Road to Canniff Street. Work on these two sections will be completed in phases, with the project beginning at College Avenue. Construction is anticipated to be complete by the end of November 2017.
 
PWE will be removing portions of the existing asphalt surface, repairing the deteriorated bases, and laying a new asphalt surface. Intermittent lane closures are to be expected throughout the project. There will be a total road closure from Tallyho Road to Canniff Street for the duration of the project, diverting traffic to Mosely Road.
 
PWE is scheduled to start repairs in the southbound lane of Easthaven Boulevard, from College Avenue to Canniff Street.  Although, construction activities behind closed areas may occur from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., construction equipment movement in the driving lanes will be limited between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m  in an effort to reduce as much traffic buildup as possible .
 
During the project, reduced speed in the construction area should be expected. However, there will be access to business es at all times. Additionally, there will be limited street parking throughout the project. To ensure driver and worker safety, flaggers and Houston Police Department Officers will be on site during construction hours to direct traffic and assist with any emergencies.
