Update on Bingle Road Road Diet

On October 18, 2021, the City sent out a notice that there would be changes to the traffic patterns on Bingle Road to implement a “Road Diet”. Spring Valley Village is coordinating with the City of Houston to do both the Spring Valley Village and City of Houston portions of the project concurrently to mitigate long-term inconvenience and traffic issues. The Road Diet will result in one northbound lane, one southbound lane, and one continuous center turn lane.

Based on information received from City of Houston, we originally anticipated that the work on the Road Diet would begin in mid-November, which was delayed to December and then again to January. As of today, we still have not received a firm date from the City of Houston.

Please continue to watch for updates about the upcoming traffic pattern changes for Bingle Road. The City will continue to update residents as new information is received and once we have a firm date.

For more information, please contact Public Works Director Arthur Faiello by email to [email protected] or by phone at (713) 465-8308.

If you see a street sweeper in the street, please use caution while passing due to the slow moving operations of the machine and the dust the machine usually stirs up.

The foundation for the fifth floor of the new Kelsey-Seybold Medical Facility located on the northwest corner of I-10 and Campbell Road is scheduled to be poured by the contractor on Friday, December 17, 2021. We have authorized the contractor to begin the concrete pour at 4:00 am so they can get as much done as possible before the morning rush hour. The work is expected to last 4-5 hours and will involve at least 15-20 concrete trucks, all of which will be contained on and rotated through the construction site.

We apologize for the inconvenience in terms of traffic and noise on that day, but it is necessary in order to get the foundation in place. We ask for your patience during this time, and be sure to take this work into consideration as you plan for this coming Friday.

If you have any questions, please contact Zachary Meadows, Community Development Director, at (832) 910-8577 or [email protected].

Installation of Flock Safety License Plate Readers to Begin Week of December 14, 2021

Dear Spring Valley Village Resident:
The City of Spring Valley Village and Spring Valley Village Police Department are working with Flock Safety to install license plate readers along a number of streets within the City to increase safety and the ability of the Police Department to apprehend criminals in Spring Valley Village. These cameras have been installed in several of the other Memorial Villages.

Upon completion of the installation, you will see a total of 25 new 12 ft. black poles with solar panels at the top and a camera mounted on the pole at various locations around the City. Attached are two photos of the license plate readers currently in Piney Point Village:

All of the poles and cameras will be installed in the City’s rights-of-way; however, since they are near certain homes, City Staff has contacted the affected residents to let them know about the installation and address any questions or concerns. The installation process is scheduled to begin the week of December 14, 2021.

The City Team will be actively monitoring the work to ensure that it complies with the Right-of-Way Permits that have been issued. In the event you have any questions about the license plate reader program, please contact Police Captain Mark Schulze by email to [email protected] or by phone at (713) 465-8323. In the event that you have any questions about the installation process, please contact Assistant to the City Administrator Matthew Hitt either by email to [email protected] or by phone at (832) 910-8586.

The City was notified a little while ago that Southwest Signals had a crew become available to begin the installation of the vehicle detection equipment at the intersection of Campbell Road and Westview Drive. Southwest Signals will begin the work tomorrow, Wednesday, December 1, 2021, and should be complete by Friday, December 3, 2021. Work hours each day will be from 9:00 am – 2:00 pm, and the work will include lane closures as needed. Please keep this work in mind as you make your travel plans for the rest of the week.

Should you have questions about this work, please contact Assistant to the City Administrator Matthew Hitt by email to [email protected] or by phone at (713) 465-8308.

11/29/2021

At 9:00 am this morning, the City was notified that Southwest Signals is ready to begin the installation of the vehicle detection equipment at the intersection of Westview Drive and Bingle Road. Southwest Signals will begin the work tomorrow, Tuesday, November 30, 2021, and should be complete by Friday, December 3, 2021. Work hours each day will be from 9:00 am – 2:00 pm, and the work will include lane closures as needed.
This intersection is being done first since it is the most critical intersection on Bingle Road. The traffic engineer and Southwest Signals will not be moving automatically to another intersection on the list of intersections but will provide the City with a schedule for the rest of the intersections so we have adequate time to notify the public.
Should you have questions about this work, please contact Assistant to the City Administrator Matthew Hitt by email to [email protected] or by phone at (713) 465-8308.

Dear Spring Valley Village Resident,

Winter Storm Uri killed and/or damaged much of the landscaping along the I-10 Sound Wall. The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has advised the City that they will not be replanting or replacing any dead landscaping along the Sound Wall until the summer of 2022 at the earliest. Consequently, the City Council has decided to address the dead landscaping.
KNB Landscaping will trim all of the Oleanders and Pampas Grass along the Sound Wall to two feet tall. KNB will also replace any dead Oleanders and place new mulch along the Sound Wall. This work will start on November 30, 2021, and be completed by December 3, 2021.

As a result of the trimming, please note that the Oleanders in particular will look substantially smaller, but this is being done to remove the dead growth and help them grow back fuller and healthier.

If you have any questions, please contact Matthew Hitt, Assistant to the City Administrator either by email to [email protected] or by phone at (832) 910-8586.

Dear Spring Valley Village Resident,

The foundation for the third floor of the new Kelsey-Seybold Medical Facility located on the northwest corner of I-10 and Campbell Road is scheduled to be poured by the contractor on Monday, November 15, 2021.

In order to alleviate traffic impacts on Campbell Road and the surrounding neighborhoods as much as possible, the contractor will begin the concrete pour at 4:00 a.m., and the work is expected to last 4-5 hours. Please note that, due to the size of the foundation, at least 15-20 concrete trucks will be utilized, and all of the trucks will be contained on the construction site. The contractor has been instructed to be mindful of traffic impacts as the morning rush hour begins.

We apologize for the inconvenience in terms of traffic and noise on that day, but it is necessary in order to get the foundation in place. We ask for your patience during this time and be sure to take this work into consideration as you plan your day next Monday.
