On September 6, 2005, (M&C C-20954) the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute
Engineering Services Contract No. 32378 with Teague Nall and Perkins in the amount of $355,275.00 for
the schematic design of Golden Triangle Boulevard from Interstate Highway 35W to US 377.
On December 12, 2006, (M&C C-21883) the City Council authorized the City Manager to execute
Amendment No. 1 to Engineering Services Contract No. 34416 with Teague Nall and Perkins, Inc., in the
amount of $1,711,431.00 for the final design of Golden Triangle Boulevard from Interstate Highway 35W to
US 377 for a total contract cost of $2,066,706.00.
Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has approved using these design costs as a portion of the
City's local match, therefore, incurred design costs for the Project recorded in 2004 Street Improvements
Fund will be transferred to the Grants Fund.
The scope of work in the Local Project Advance Funding Agreement (LPAFA) consists of the widening and
reconstruction of Golden Triangle Boulevard from two lanes to four lanes between Interstate Highway 35W
to US 377. The City is responsible for designing the roadway, securing any needed right-of-way, adjusting
or relocating utilities, and environmental mitigation for the project. TxDOT will advertise, award, and inspect
construction for the Project. The City will own and maintain the roadway after construction is complete.
The total project funding is $25,162,710.00 which consists of Federal funding, $11,000,000.00; City funding,
$6,518,422.67, developer funding received through various Community Facilities Agreements for future
improvements to Golden Triangle Boulevard, $344,287.33; and Tarrant County funding,
$7,300,000.00. Upon execution of the agreement between the City, the first payment of $1,517,433.00 will
be due to TxDOT.
This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2, Mapsco 21 L, 21 M and 21 R; 22N, 21 P, 21 Q, 21 L and 21 M;
and 23J. It is anticipated that TxDOT will let the project for construction in Spring 2009.
