Editorial on New East West Highway Through Eagle Lake

The Houston Chronicle editorial advocates a proposed east west highway from Houston through Wallis to Eagle Lake to spur development across Harris Fort Bend Austin and Colorado counties. A tentative route would pass Clodine Gaston and Falshear areas lacking paved roads, linking Houston to San Antonio and enhancing markets for agriculture in Fort Bend and Colorado counties. The piece notes potential suburban growth in Harris County and cites existing paved connections from Eagle Lake to Altair Hallettsville and onward toward San Antonio, highlighting implications for farming and regional access.
