New Fire Station No. 5 Underway

The Woodlands Township and The Woodlands Fire Department held a groundbreaking ceremony on Thursday, August 22, 2024, signifying the start of construction on a new Fire Station No. 5. Located at 8001 McBeth Way near the Sterling Ridge Park and Ride, the new fire station will comprise 23,000 square feet. The new two-story station meets the expansion needs of the department and moves the station out of the path of a congested school zone, placing it much closer to Woodlands Parkway and allowing for a more efficient response to its coverage area.
