A Fort Bend County resolution aims to encourage the Texas Department of Transportation to continue progress on the Hwy. 36A Corridor project after delays, according to agenda documents.

Fort Bend County Commissioners Court on April 11 conveyed its support for the continuance of the 36A Corridor environmental impact study, a project that encompasses transportation infrastructure in Fort Bend, Brazoria and Waller counties.

The study is for a proposed Hwy. 36A that would act as a “transportation corridor” between Hwy. 59/I-69 and Hwy. 290/Hwy. 6 near Hempstead Road.

According to agenda documents, the study was divided into two different segments, leading to delays due to required contract changes.
