Keep I-45 Funding

The Issue

Join TAG and tell the Texas Transportation Commission to keep the funding for Houston's I-45 North Houston Highway Improvement Project (NHHIP). The stakes are high and the cost of NOT lending your voice is enormous.

I-45 as it stands today is in need of significant repairs and enhancements and this project provides for proper drainage planning improvements, flood control investment and flood area reductions.  Safety remains a constant concern and the NHHIP is designed to reduce the frequency of crashes with increased roadway capacity and space and improved bridges.  

As a designated emergency evacuation route, I-45 currently does not meet federal safety standards and it falls short of meeting the demands for a projected 40% increase in traffic by 2040.  

It is clear that we need this project and we need to keep the funding for its completion.  Tell the Texas Transportation Commission you support keeping this project and funding in their 10-year plan (UTP) by adding your signature to this petition.  

Thank you for your support!
