As Fort Bend County grows at an unprecedented pace, the infrastructure that moves people and goods is inseparable from the region's economic strength and quality of life.

On October 14, we invite you to join us at the Fort Bend Regional Partnership office for Driving Fort Bend Forward: Fort Bend Toll Update — an inside look at the major mobility projects, planned expansions, and strategic investments that will define transportation in our region for years to come.

We are pleased to welcome Jim Rice, Chairman of the Fort Bend County Toll Road Authority, and David Gornet, Executive Director of the Fort Bend County Toll Road Authority. Together, they will share the initiatives keeping Fort Bend connected, competitive, and moving forward. This is an important opportunity for business and civic leaders who depend on a well-functioning regional transportation network.

This event is Sponsored by BGE, Inc., Huitt-Zollars, Inc., Schwartz Page Harding, and WSB. and exclusive to partnership members.

When residents can access resources, workforce pathways, and opportunities, Fort Bend’s whole economy benefits.

Pathways to Prosperity: Fort Bend, part of the Gateways for Growth (G4G) initiative, is a countywide project that will gather community input to better understand needs, opportunities, and resource gaps. The findings will help strengthen future programs, resources, and economic opportunity across Fort Bend, and will guide partnerships and advocacy efforts.

We are inviting adults (18+) who were born outside the U.S. and currently live in Fort Bend County to take part. Participation is voluntary and confidential, and every response helps shape opportunities that support a stronger Fort Bend for everyone.

We encourage you to share this with colleagues, neighbors, and community members who may want to participate. To learn more and take the survey, visit fortbendregionalpartnership.com/areas-of-impact/pathways-to-prosperity/
