The City of Houston Planning and Development Department, in collaboration with Houston Public Works, commissioned the Acres Home Mobility Study (Study) to evaluate ways to improve circulation in the Acres Home Study Area, which currently features multiple mobility challenges in addition to unprecedented growth.

The Study Area is located in Houston’s Acres Home Super Neighborhood, bounded by West Little York Road on the north, West Tidwell Road on the south, Wheatley Street on the east, and TC Jester Boulevard on the west.

The Acres Home Mobility Study included three public meetings, one for each of the three project phases: Existing Conditions Analysis; Gap Analysis; and Mobility Plan. All meetings were held at the Acres Home Community Center at 6 pm.

• The Existing Conditions Analysis public meeting was held on June 7, 2022
• The Gap Analysis public meeting was held on August 9, 2022
• The Final Recommendations public meeting was held on October 6, 2022

The community was involved in the process and provided information regarding the neighborhood, history of the Complete Community Action Plan, specific input on needs in the area, and input on the final recommendations presented. Comments from the public were considered by the city and further information, as well as attendees’ ideas and prioritization suggestions, is provided in the Public Meeting Notes in Appendix C of the study.
