Neighborhood Traffic Concerns-  Neighborhood traffic concerns mainly arise from drivers speeding or disregarding other safe-driving practices. Safety of children is a primary concern. The solution to such concerns often rests primarily in the hands of the neighborhood residents. Click link to learn more.

Submittal of Street Light Installation Request - Street light installation may be requested by a Developer for new subdivisions, or by a private citizen for existing City of Conroe streets, by submitting the Street Light Installation Request Form.

For a new subdivision, upon receipt of the completed Street Light Installation Request and the required digital copy of the previously approved street light layout from the Developer, the City will make a request to Entergy to install the street lights, and Entergy will contact the developer with an invoice amount to be paid directly to Entergy.

For an existing subdivision, City street or address, upon receipt of the completed Street Light Installation Request from a private citizen, the City Engineer will conduct a field investigation to determine if street lights are warranted, based on the existing conditions.  The citizen will be contacted with the City Engineer's determination following his review of the investigation.  If the City Engineer concludes that street lights are warranted, the City will make a request to Entergy to install the proposed street lights.
