Chambers launch ‘Northpark Needs You’ campaign to support Kingwood businesses affected by road work
Two local chambers have united to launch a campaign aimed at supporting businesses affected by the ongoing construction along Northpark Drive in Kingwood.
What’s happening? Officials with the Greater East Montgomery County Chamber and Partnership Lake Houston announced the “Northpark Needs You” campaign via a news release July 29.
“This regional effort comes in response to construction initiated by the Lake Houston Redevelopment Authority, which—while vital to infrastructure—is placing a heavy burden on local businesses that depend on in-person customers,” the release reads.
The campaign aims to raise awareness and inspire residents to “shop local, dine local and drive the extra mile for Kingwood businesses.”
Some context: Construction on a two-part project along Northpark Drive began in 2023 and is expected to continue through 2030, as previously reported by Community Impact.
Get involved: As part of the campaign, chamber officials have launched an online directory that showcases more than 120 businesses that are located along the affected corridor and are dependent upon in-person customers.
