Recently Completed Mobility Projects

San Felipe

One of our signature thoroughfares, San Felipe was reconstructed from Yorktown to the West Loop with 20,000 tons of 10-inch reinforced concrete.  In addition, a westbound lane was added to allow for three lanes of traffic in both directions, increasing capacity on San Felipe by 50 percent. Crews also added a second left-hand turn lane on the southbound West Loop feeder at San Felipe and a new traffic signal at Hallmark Drive.

Originally a historic trail leading to the Austin colonies, San Felipe continues to be a prominent link to corporate headquarters, prestigious neighborhoods and high-end retail.  Today, as an oak-lined parkway accented with pedestrian lighting and landscaping, San Felipe serves as a gateway into Uptown. 

Ambassador Way

The reconstruction of this street, with new pavement, wider sidewalks, pedestrian lighting and landscaping, connects Post Oak Lane and Skylark to San Felipe.

Post Oak Lane / Skylark

New road dubbed the “missing link,” runs north and south connecting San Felipe to Ambassador Way. This new street allows commuters to get from the Galleria / Westheimer to Woodway without ever driving on Westheimer, Post Oak Boulevard or San Felipe.
