Baytown to Add Bayway Drive Lanes With Low Front-Foot Cost

Baytown consulting engineer A J Johnny Busch told residents Thursday night that converting Bayway Drive into a four lane street with a median should cost property owners along the thoroughfare no more than 22 dollars per front foot, with even that figure unlikely. The Bayway project is part of an $11.6 million bond plan, and engineers say economies can be gained by aligning it with Brownwood subdivision work to the first phase. Moore questioned how sewer lines along his Bayway Drive boundary would be rebuilt without encroaching on his property, and Busch said the sewer plan remains premature, with alternate methods available if needed.
