Friendswood Parkway Corridor Study

Houston-Galveston Area Council (H-GAC) has established a partnership with the City of Friendswood, Texas to conduct a Corridor Study of Friendswood Parkway from Farm-to-Market Road 2351 (FM 2351) to Farm-to-Market Road 528 (FM 528). The ultimate plan for Friendswood Parkway is to extend the Parkway through Friendswood starting at FM 528 into Brazoria County, where it will connect to FM 2351 and eventually, Pearland Parkway. The completion of this initiative will be a regional effort by the City of Friendswood, City of Pearland, Galveston County, Brazoria County and Texas Department of Transportation.

The goal of this study is to provide a greater level of mobility for residents by determining the preferred alignment for Friendswood Parkway. When complete, the four-lane divided parkway will provide an alternative route to Interstate 45 South (IH 45S), Farm-to-Market Road 518 (FM 518) and will also serve as an alternative evacuation route for areas near the Gulf Coast.
