Harris County Commissioners Court is being asked to approve a final payment of $1,369,112.51 to TxDOT to close out construction on the Lynchburg Ferry Landing Rehabilitation project in Precinct 2. The free ferry crosses the Houston Ship Channel, connecting North and South Independence Parkway near the San Jacinto Battleground Monument. Work included rebuilding approaches, repairing berthing facilities, replacing vehicle ramps, and installing new hoist systems to reduce flooding outages and improve reliability.

This final payment closes out construction on the Lynchburg Ferry Landing, a free public ferry crossing the Houston Ship Channel in Precinct 2. Residents who use this route to cross near the San Jacinto Battleground may be affected.
