Grand Parkway Extension from 249 - I-45

Segment F-2 is a proposed 12.1-mile, four-lane, controlled access toll road with intermittent frontage roads from SH 249 (Tomball Parkway) to IH 45 (N) (North Freeway) through Harris County.

For Segment F-2, the alternative alignments were developed within the project area to fulfill the purpose and need of the project, to minimize potential environmental impacts, and to respond to public/landowner and resource agency comments.

A Recommended Alternative Alignment was identified in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS February 2004). This selection was based on public and resource agency input, and analysis and comparison of the potential effects on the physical, biological, and human environments of each alternative alignment.

After reviewing public comments on the Segment F-2 DEIS, the Grand Parkway Association in coordination with TxDOT and FHWA decided to prepare a Revised DEIS that was released on June 9, 2006.

Due to public comments, the Revised DEIS included a new alternative alignment, Alignment F, in the analysis. A Public Hearing was conducted  over two nights at Klein Collins High School on July 11 and 12, 2006.

The Recommended Alternative Alignment, as of the May 2006, DEIS, is shown below on the map. Click on the individual purple squares to view detailed maps of Segment F-2. These squares indicate the limits of the detailed maps for this segment. Once a square is selected, the detailed map will open in a separate window.
