FM 518 Bypass Public Meeting Set for June 10th
The City of League City will hold a public meeting on June 10th at 7:00 p.m. at the League City Council Chmabers to address citizen questions and concerns regarding the FM 518 Bypass Project. The project is intended to help alleviate traffic congestion at the Five Corners, one of the region’s most congested intersections. The meeting, which was originally scheduled for May 27th, has been postponed to allow the City to gather additional data.
City Manager Marcus Jahns has set up an internal working group to address community concerns regarding the project. “Moving forward, we plan to meet with key project partners to ensure that we improve mobility while being sensitive to all concerned,” said Public Works Director, Rich Oller, who is leading the project. Oller is also coordinating the flow of information with a citizen group that is being assembled. Key questions regarding the project, which has been in the planning process for nearly 10 years, revolve around environmental and neighborhood issues as well as cost-benefit analyses of the chosen route. These questions and others are to be addressed at the June 10th meeting. Information concerning the 518 Bypass Project, as well as this meeting, can be found under the FM 518 Bypass Project button on the homepage of leaguecity.com. Announcements of this meeting and other FM 518 Bypass public meetings will also be made through the City’s Blackboard Connect phone, email and text system. Residents can sign up for the system on leaguecity.com to ensure they receive notice of upcoming meetings.
