The city of Conroe approved an agreement with Montgomery County on Oct. 26 to fund construction of a road connecting the I-45 north service road to FM 2854 on the east side of the highway. The $1.22 million road will loop around the north and east sides of Montgomery County Central Library and create additional access for the future Veteran’s Memorial Park and Spirit of Texas Plaza. Spirit of Texas Bank is also funding a segment of the road that connects the plaza to the city and county funded road. “It provides access not only to the future veterans park but also to more properties behind the library,” said Tommy Woolley, interim engineering director for the city of Conroe. The project is in the design phase and is set to go out for bid in early 2018, he said. It is due to break ground in June and be completed in September.
