===Major thoroughfares=== [[Interstate 69 in Texas|Interstate 69]]/[[U.S. Route 59 in Texas|U.S. Highway 59]], the major freeway running diagonally through the city, has undergone a major widening project in recent years to accommodate the region's daily commuters. The finished portion of the freeway from east of State Highway 6 to just west of State Highway 99 currently has eight main lanes, with two diamond lanes and six continuous frontage road lanes. The freeway is currently undergoing a major expansion west of the city to accommodate growth in the nearby Richmond/Rosenberg area and western Fort Bend County, as well as upgrading it to federal highway standards to reflect its newfound status as an [[Interstate Highway System|interstate highway]]. [[U.S. Route 90 Alternate (Texas)|U.S. Highway 90 Alternate]] is another major highway running through Sugar Land from west to east and traverses a historic area of the city, known as "Old Sugar Land". Originally the main highway in Sugar Land prior to the construction of what is now Interstate 69, U.S. Highway 90A is currently widened to an eight-lane highway with a {{convert|30|ft|m|adj=on}} median between State Highway 6 and Interstate 69/U.S. Highway 59. [[Texas State Highway 6|State Highway 6]] is a major highway running from north to southeast Sugar Land and traverses through the {{convert|10,000|acre|km2}} master-planned community of First Colony. There is a freeway section that opened in 2008 from just west of Brooks Street/First Colony Blvd all the way to 3/4 miles north of U.S. Highway 90A. A segment of [[Texas State Highway 99|State Highway 99]]/[[Grand Parkway]] currently traverses the New Territory and River Park master-planned communities. The original highway opened in 1994, with toll lanes added in 2014. Construction will start soon south of its current terminus at Interstate 69/US 59, which is expected to extend the highway east to Alvin in Brazoria County. Texas F.M. 1876, widely known as Copenhaver Road, is a north-south state highway in north Sugar Land. It traverses through many established areas and acts as the western border of the Sugar Land Business Park.
