ELLIS CREEK BLVD. SCHEDULED TO OPEN TUESDAY, MARCH 9
After several months of lane closures on Ellis Creek Blvd. due to a LID 7 project which entailed raising the roadway to complete the levee system around New Territory, this New Territory entrance street is scheduled for opening on Tuesday, March 9. The lanes are expected to be open to traffic following final paving inspection by the City of Sugar Land on Tuesday, the LID 7 engineer reported to the board on March 4.
Raising Ellis Creek Blvd. was one of the final steps in the LID 7 project to raise the levee as required by FEMA. Costello Engineering will submit an appeal to Fort Bend County and FEMA by April 2 so that the final flood plain maps do not show New Territory to be in a 100 year floodplain.
