Ship Channel Widening Studied by Corps of Engineers
The U S Army Corps of Engineers reviews plans to widen the Houston Ship Channel from 400 feet to 600 feet, noting the 1959 widening left 300 feet between Greens Bayou and the Turning Basin. Costs cited include 30 million to widen to 600 feet and 8 feet to full depth, with Port of Houston Executive Director George W Neier calling the 45 million figure dirt cheap due to inadequate current width for newer ships.
