Harris County and Fort Bend County are working together to improve Belknap Road from West Belfort to 600 feet beyond. This joint project will rebuild the roadway and add new sidewalks. The counties signed an interlocal agreement to share costs and coordinate the work in Precinct 4. Belknap Road connects communities across county lines. When roads cross boundaries, counties must work together to fix them properly. This agreement lets both counties pool their resources and expertise. The project will make driving safer and give people a place to walk. Better roads mean less wear on your car and shorter commute times. New sidewalks help families walk safely to schools, stores, and bus stops. This matters because many Houston-area residents live near county lines and use roads that cross between Harris and Fort Bend counties daily. The project shows how local governments can collaborate to serve residents better. County commissioners approved this agreement in May 2026, moving the project forward. For updates on construction timing or to ask questions about the project, contact Luis Cabrera at the Harris County Engineering Department. Residents can also attend Commissioners Court meetings to learn about similar infrastructure projects. These partnerships help stretch tax dollars further while improving the roads we all depend on.
