Sugar Land will plant trees and shrubs along Hwy 90A from Hwy 59 out to just past Hwy 6 by the end of the year.

TxDOT wants to construct a multi-level interchange at Hwy 90A & Hwy 99 (Grand Pkwy). This project however, wouldn't even start for many years and is already causing some controversy.

If you haven't seen it lately, it's coming along very nicely! There are a lot more trees than I expected. Along Hwy 6 near University Blvd too. Will look great after a few years of growth.

Looks like overpasses are going in on the Grand Parkway (Hwy 99) near River Park and also at West Airport Blvd. This will be the toll section of the Grand Parkway.

Also at West Airport Blvd @ Hwy 99, it looks like the Aliana master-planned community is doing major work on a new entrance and possibly expanding West Airport Blvd from two to four lanes with a median. I'd expect major commercial to move into the area after that (retail, restaurants etc.) according to their land use map.

The south half of FM 1464 is nearing completion on the road widening project. I'm told TxDOT is to plant lots of trees afterward. Also there are tentative plans for a beautification project of FM 1464 (landscaping) from the southernmost end outside Chelsea Harbour up to West Airport Blvd, to be completed by the local municipal utility district.
