Beautification and Maintenance
Our Field Services Department is dedicated to creating and maintaining a vibrant, attractive environment throughout the District.
By focusing on the maintenance and beautification of parks, trails, green spaces, and key corridors, we aim to evoke a sense of pride and place in our community. Whether you’re driving through our major thoroughfares or enjoying a stroll in our public spaces, you’ll experience the positive impact of our efforts to enhance the beauty and appeal of North Houston.
Branded Street Signs
Every street sign within the District’s City of Houston boundaries was upgraded with a branded street sign, and today, our Field Services Department is responsible for maintaining 196 overhead signs and 303 corner signs, replacing any damaged or lost signs when necessary. They add visual appeal, and a pop of polish on every corner.
Curb Painting Program
As part of the District’s commitment to beautification, our curb painting program plays a crucial role in maintaining the polished look of esplanades and medians. The freshly painted, brightly colored curbs not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of our roadways but also contribute to public safety by improving visibility for drivers and pedestrians. These seemingly small improvements have a significant impact over time, helping to create a safer, more attractive environment for everyone in the North Houston District.
In 2024, nearly 20,000 linear feet of curb was refreshed along Greenspoint Drive, Greens Road, Greens Parkway Ella Boulevard, and Greens Crossing Boulevard. Each year, the District invests in new roads.
Street Sweeping
In our ongoing efforts to keep the North Houston District clean and inviting, we maintain a rigorous street sweeping program that covers 13 miles of roadways each month. This regular street sweeping ensures that debris, litter, and dirt are promptly removed from our streets, contributing to a tidier, more welcoming environment. Beyond just enhancing the visual appeal of our corridors, this routine maintenance also helps protect our local waterways by preventing pollutants from entering the storm drains. It’s another example of how our attention to detail makes a lasting difference in the overall quality of life in our community.
