The Bridge is Finished-- A Great Christmas Present!

For those of you who frequent the FM 3083 road that crosses I-45, we are all so glad that the new construction has been completed. The reopening ribbon-cutting ceremony happened on December 13, 2007, a week ahead of time. A special thank you goes to the employees of TxDOT for working diligently to see the bridge widening project (2 lanes to 5 lanes) completed in time for the Christmas season. Shoppers were excited to be able to use the very popular bridge to access the new Kohls and Pet Smart shopping center. Across the bridge on the West side, the site for the new mall is being prepared and many are waiting in anticipation of making Conroe their main shopping rather than the Woodlands Mall. The new bridge bares the name of Don Blanton Memorial Bridge in honor of the man who served Montgomery County for nearly 20 years and who was instramental in the building of the original bridge in 1962. Thank you to our Conroe City Council and TxDOT as they continue to plan ahead and expand the roadways to ease the traffic patterns in the fast growing Montgomery County and the city of Conroe. The homeowners of our area appreciate this so much as they commute to work. Keep up the good work! -- Linda Dayen
