City of League City

A delegation of officials from the City of League City met with representatives of the Texas Department of Transportation last week.

The group included Mayor Jeff Harrison, City Administrator Chuck Harrington, and council members Barbara Meeks and Hamid Kantara.

"We expressed our concerns regarding the ongoing problems with traffic and the need to move forward with some of the projects," Kantara reported.  "Some of the items addressed included Wesley Drive at FM 518, I-45 at FM 518, I-45 at Highway 96, and the FM 518/FM 270/FM 2094 intersection.  Mr. Gary Trietsch understood our concerns and promised to look into the possibility of advancing some of the planned projects."

Kantara said that TXDOT is taking positive steps.

"At this point, his staff is preparing a layout to get the barriers placed at Main Street in front of Academy as quickly as possible," Kantara said.  "Our staff will receive a layout in the next few weeks and will review it. We anticipate the traffic light project at Wesley Drive and Main Street will move up as well."
