of the Sugar Land Business Park. Going north leads into the city of Houston and Harris County. Farm to Market Road 2759, or Crabb River Road and Thompsons Road, is a rural state highway serving the far southwestern portion of Sugar Land's extraterritorial jurisdiction. The highway starts at the terminus of State Highway 99 at Interstate 69/U.S. Highway 59 and traverses by the master-planned community of Greatwood and other communities such as Canyon Gate at the Brazos, Tara Colony, Royal Lake Estates, and eventually to the town of Thompsons. University Boulevard, formerly referred to as State Highway 6 Bypass south of U.S. Highway 90A and Burney Road Bypass north of U.S. Highway 90A, is a proposed major north–south to southeast arterial. It will eventually traverse through the master-planned communities of Sugar Mill, First Crossing, Telfair (formerly known as TX DOT Tract 4 & 5), Avalon, and Riverstone. A portion is completed from south of Interstate 69/U.S. Highway 59 to the Commonwealth Blvd intersection, just west of the Avalon master-planned community. Another completed section is east of State Highway 6 as it traverses through the First Crossing master-planned commercial development and dead ends just before U.S. Highway 90A. Portions also are open to traffic in the Riverstone subdivision. Airport Sugar Land Regional Airport (formerly Sugar Land Municipal Airport) was purchased from a private interest in 1990 by the city of Sugar Land. Sugar Land Regional is the fourth largest airport within the Houston–Sugar Land–Baytown Metropolitan Area. The airport handles approximately 350 aircraft operations per day. The airport today mostly serves the area's general aviation (GA) aircraft. A new 20,000 square foot (1,900 m2) Terminal and a 60-acre (243,000 m2) GA complex, are under construction, with the terminal completion expected in Spring 2006. Sugar Land Regional briefly handled commercial passenger service during the mid-1990s via a now-defunct Texas carrier known as Conquest Airlines. For scheduled commercial service, Sugar Landers rely on Houston's two commercial airports, George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), 45 miles northeast, and William P. Hobby Airport (HOU), 30 miles east. The city of Houston maintains a park that occupies 750 acres (3 km2) of land directly north of the Sugar Land Regional Airport and Sugar Land homeowners have built houses directly south of the airport, both factors that block airport expansion.
