The 2,800-acre master-planned community of Artavia in Conroe has announced the opening of a new entrance on Hwy. 1314. This will help residents get to their homes more easily and reduce traffic.
A news release issued on February 4 said that the new access point will improve connectivity and cut down on journey time to major highways, especially during rush hours.
Tyler Stone, vice president of land development at AIRIA Development Company, which built Artavia, said, "This new access point will significantly cut travel time to major highways for our residents, promoting smoother traffic flow and supporting the continued growth of our community."
A four-lane road and an extension of Artavia Parkway will be built at the new entrance, making it easier and faster for workers to get to work. Artavia started in 2019 and is quickly growing. When it's done, it will have 6,500 homes.
The neighborhood also wants to build 120 acres of mixed-use space, which will make it even more appealing as a lively, well-connected place to live.
