A beloved springtime event is set to return to Town Green Park and along The Woodlands Waterway® to commemorate its 20-year journey on April 11, 12, and 13, 2025. Organized by the local arts non-profit, The Woodlands Arts Council, the festival's proceeds will directly support local microgrant initiatives and student art scholarship programs.
The Woodlands® Town Center Owners Association (TCOA), in partnership with The Woodlands Township, is unveiling a new 250-foot pedestrian bridge over The Woodlands Waterway®, near The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. Planned in 2003, this bridge marks the fifth pedestrian crossing along the Waterway, further enhancing the walkability and accessibility of The Woodlands Town Center. Weighing 150,000 pounds, the bridge is fully funded by TCOA, reflecting the commitment of the business community to improving connectivity and the overall visitor experience in the area.
The bridge currently under construction will shorten the route to select event parking lots by 1,200 feet, significantly enhancing the experience for those attending concerts, parades, and festivals near the Waterway. By providing direct access to key parking areas, such as the Blue and Green lots, the bridge will help alleviate post-event pedestrian congestion. The bridge will also benefit daily visitors, offering improved access to scenic paths, shops, restaurants, and other amenities.
“This bridge isn’t just a connection – it’s an investment in the quality of life for our residents and visitors,” said Kelly Dietrich, President of the TCOA. “By creating seamless pathways between world-class amenities, entertainment venues and parking, we're making The Woodlands more accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Whether attending a concert at the Pavilion or taking a leisurely stroll along the Waterway, this bridge ensures a more convenient and memorable experience for all.”
The bridge's design complements the existing architectural elements along the Waterway while providing numerous practical benefits, including enhanced safety by separating pedestrian and vehicular traffic; improved accessibility for visitors with varying mobility needs; additional vantage points to enjoy The Woodlands' scenic views; and reduced congestion at ground-level crossings.
The project is expected to be complete by late March. This installation is part of the ongoing community efforts to maintain the 1.8-mile The Woodlands Waterway as the crown jewel of the Town Center, offering walkable access to shopping, dining, entertainment, residential areas, hotels, and outdoor art.
