Making the Westchase District neighborhood more walkable and safer for cyclists is the main goal for the rebuilding of Walnut Bend Lane.
“We got wider sidewalks, we got pedestrian lighting for added safety at night, which is a huge feature here in Houston. And of course, we have an on-street bike lane which we don’t see a lot of here in Houston,” said Ricky Gonzalez, team leader for Lockwood, Andrews & Newnam, Inc.
“What we’re trying to promote is, if you’re going from your apartment or your house to the nearest Target, get on a bike or walk. There’s no need to get in a car for one block,” said Gonzalez.Of course, in order to encourage folks to do so, residents have to feel safe to consider these different options to move around town, especially a busy city like Houston.
The rebuild of Walnut Bend Lane tackled a huge punch list, and on that list was drainage. You can’t see those improvements because they’re underground, but during those rain events, folks walking on the side won’t have to worry about the water getting so high it spills over from the road to the sidewalk.
