Status: 60% Design (Calhoun Rd Segment)

The Calhoun-Griggs-MLK Corridor is a planned project to improve street safety and connect people to work, school, parks, and other destinations in a way that supports a healthy lifestyle as outlined in the Martin Luther King Corridor Healthy Connections Study. The corridor is currently proposed as an approximately 7-mile street redesign encompassing three street segments:

• Calhoun Rd from Wheeler Ave to Griggs Rd
• Griggs Rd from Tierwester St to Beekman Rd
• Martin Luther King Blvd from Griggs Rd to the Sims Bayou

Proposed street improvements include:

• Sidewalk and curb ramp improvements
• Adding and restriping crosswalks
• Intersection improvements for all road users
• New wider, protected bikeways
• Transit improvements such as rebuilt, better-placed bus stops, and improved connections.

This project is a partnership between the City of Houston and Harris County Precinct 1. Please visit letstalkhouston.org/calhoun-griggs-mlk to review, provide comments, and ask questions about the project.
