The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has reported that the water levels within the Barker Reservoir in northeast Fort Bend County are beginning to impact residential roads within the reservoir in Fort Bend County.

“It is critical now that residents in the western portion of the reservoir pay close attention to the developing situation there, and have a plan to keep yourself, your families and your pets safe,” said County Judge Robert Hebert. “Corp of Engineer predictions indicate that water could soon rise to levels that will enter structures in those areas.“

As advised on Saturday, residents should be aware of the following road conditions:

Roads in Canyon Gate and east Cinco Ranch are now receiving overflow flood waters.

The first roads affected will be east of S. Mason Road. The waters will rise backwards from the reservoir in an area roughly south of Westheimer Road and east of Grand Parkway (SH 99).

Please do not drive on these impassable roads. Turn Around, Don’t Drown.

Again, the potential impact of these flood waters may impact several thousand homes in the Barker Reservoir in Fort Bend County, including the following neighborhoods and subdivisions:

CANYON GATE, all sections;

CINCO RANCH, following sections (Bayou Park Estates; Cinco Forest; Equestrian Village; Fountain View; Greenway Village; Institutional Core; Southpark; Meadow Place; North Lake Village; Plaza Subdivision; West, Section 7; Willow Fork);

GRAND LAKES, all sections;
