Background Information•
The US 79 Culvert Project is to provide positive drainage to alleviate an existing flooding
problem at US 79 at FM 1460 as well as providing for new development north of US 79.
This project will consist of the installation of three 60-inch culverts, which will be bored
under the roadway section, with concrete headwalls, as well as other miscellaneous work
including stone gabions and rock riprap. This project will result in a reduction in the costs
for the A.W. Grimes Boulevard by significantly reducing the size of drainage structures. The
HEB development is also prepared to participate in the cost of right-of-way acquisition for
this project, which would allow the relocation of the drainage from the existing
neighborhood to west of development.
