These include:
- City of Fort Worth Transportation and Public Works "Traffic Signal Design Guidelines,
January, 2002".
- Example plan set illustrating desired format for each type of plan sheet to be developed by
the Engineer.
- Example City standard traffic signal construction details and specifications.
- Special traffic signal pole assembly detail sheets.
E. All Microstation CADD standards and level symbology will follow NTTA requirements.
F. The CITY will provide determination for provision cable TV drops, vehicle detection, and
Opticom equipment.
G. The CITY will review plans and provide recommendations in a timely manner.
H. All intersections will be designed to accommodate existing or future pedestrian activities,
including sidewalk ramps, crosswalks, push buttons, and pedestrian heads as requested by
the CITY and NTTA.
E. The ENGINEER will furnish each NTTA Section Design Engineer the following items to
produce a complete set of construction plans for bidding purposes:
- Quantity Summary and Opinion of Probable Construction Cost
- General Notes
- Existing Conditions Layout (for currently signalized intersections)
- Traffic Signal Design Layout (per intersection)
- Signs and Markings Layout (per intersection)
- Traffic Signal Standard Detail Sheets (for each Section)
The ENGINEER assumes that the Sidewalk Ramp Layout and Geometric Modification Layout
sheets typically included in a CITY traffic signal design construction plan set will be prepared by
each NTTA Section Design Engineer.
TASK 1.0 TRAFFIC SIGNAL DESIGNS
A. The ENGINEER will prepare for and attend up to four kick-off meetings with the CITY, the
NTTA General Engineering Consultant (GEC), and each NTTA Section Design Engineer.
B. The ENGINEER will obtain electronic copies of current preliminary interchange layouts and
traffic control plan layouts from each NTTA Section Design Engineer. This should include but
not be limited to the proposed roadway plans, right-of-way information, and utility plans.
C. The ENGINEER will review the current interchange layouts and trafFic control plan layouts. As
part of our review, the ENGINEER will coordinate the temporary signals required for each
phase of construction with the permanent signal layouts.
Attachment A
Page 2 of 5
D. The ENGINEER will collect peak hour turning movement counts for peak periods including
pedestrians and heavy vehicles at the interchanges listed below. The peak period counts shall
be consecutive 15-minute periods at typical peak periods:
A.M. 7— a.m. 9 a.m., NOON: 11:30 a.m. — 1:30 p.m., P.M. 4:30 p.m. — 6:30 p.m. weekdays,
and 2:00 p.m. — 4:00 p.m. Saturday.
1. Forest Park Blvd.
2. University Dr.
3. Bryant Irvin Blvd. at SH-183
E. The ENGINEER will complete warrant studies for all project cross street interchanges and
frontage road interchanges along SH 121. Warrant studies will be completed using the
procedures outlined in the Texas Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (Texas MUTCD).
The warrant studies will be completed using either existing or projected peak hour traffic
volumes developed as part of the SH 121/Southwest Parkway master planning project
completed by the ENGINEER.
F. The ENGINEER will gather electronic copies of the current Synchro signal timing models for
the Forest Park Blvd., University Dr., and Bryant irvin Blvd. interchanges from the CITY. Each
model will be used to determine the recommended signal operations and phasing for each
interchange.
G. The ENGINEER will determine the pedestrian, ADA, and ITS requirements for each project
intersection. The ENGINEER will evaluate the proposed layouts using the CITY's SH 121
Master Plan and NTTA's corridor ITS Master Plan. If necessary, the ENGINEER will coordinate
with each Section Design Engineer to modify their layouts to reflect the proposed pedestrian
and ADA requirements. The ENGINEER will coordinate with each Section Design Engineer's
ITS consultant to locate the proposed electrical service and ITS devices at each interchange.
The ENGINEER will meet with the CITY to identify the operational and connectivity
requirements to the various ITS devices at each interchange.
H. The ENGINEER will create base plan sheets for signal plans from the electronic CADD files
provided by each Section Design Engineer.
For current signalized intersections, the ENGINEER will prepare an existing conditions
diagram.
J. The ENGINEER will meet with the CITY to discuss the electric service, communications,
vehicle detection, and Opticom requirements at each interchange. Since the majority of the
interchanges are new, no field reconnaissance of the intersections will be required. All existing
and proposed utilities, pavement widths, lane configurations, and traffic control devices will be
determined based on the design CADD files provided by each NTTA Section Design Engineer.
K. The ENGINEER will perform a capacity analysis indicating level of service for each movement
at each interchange. A capacity analysis report using the SynchroT"' analysis software is
preferred; however other capacity methods are acceptable.
L. The ENGINEER will evaluate and design phasing with consideration of capabilities of current
Attachment A
Page 3 of 5
City controller hardware and software operation functions.
M. The ENGINEER will prepare and submit a"short report" for each interchange to the CITY for
review and approval. The report will include:
- existing and/or projected traffic volumes;
- discussion of existing and proposed conditions;
- capacity analysis results;
- photo-log of interchange approaches (if applicable);
- recommendations for signal design, phasing, operations, illumination; and pedestrian
accommodations; and
- address any unusual conditions and provide recommendations to resolve these conditions.
N. The ENGINEER will prepare for and attend a review meeting with the CITY to receive and
reach concurrence regarding the "short report" review comments.
O. The ENGINEER will prepare the 60% PS&E traffic signal designs for each project interchange.
Plans, specifications and estimates (PS&E) for the above work shall be prepared in
accordance with the applicable requirements for CITY and NTTA plans, details, specifications,
standards, and manuals. The ENGINEER will review the general notes, traffic signal
specifications, and standard general provisions supplied by the CITY for applicability and
modify (if necessary) for the respective interchanges. The ENGINEER should identify any
design exceptions to CITY Standards in the 60% design phase. The ENGINEER will prepare
and submit 60% PS&E packages to the CITY and NTTA for review and comment. All PS&E
packages (11" x 17" paper copy) will be submitted via each NTTA Section Design Engineer.

COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 1/9/2007 - Ordinance No. 17355-01-2007
DATE: Tuesday, January 09, 2007
LOG NAME: 20SH121TSIGNAL REFERENCE NO.: **C-21920
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of an Interlocal Agreement with North Texas Tollway Authority and an
Agreement for Engineering Services with Kimley-Horn & Associates, Inc., for the Preparation of
Plans, Specifications and Estimates for Traffic Signals along SH-121/Southwest Parkway and Adopt
Appropriation Ordinance
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize the City Manager to execute an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) with the North Texas Tollway
Authority (NTTA) in the amount of $280,000 to share the cost of the preparation of construction plans,
specifications and estimates (PS&E) for traffic signals along the SH-121/Southwest Parkway.
2. Authorize the City Manager to execute an Agreement for Engineering Services with Kimley-Horn &

Grant Fund by $280,000.
DISCUSSION:
NTTA staff has asked City staff to manage the development of traffic signal construction plans for the SH-
121 / Southwest Parkway corridor through Fort Worth. NTTA does not have traffic signal design or
construction standards and the maintenance of the future traffic signals along the corridor will be the
responsibility of the City. The attached ILA with NTTA provides for the City to be fully reimbursed in an
amount not to exceed $280,000 for the consultant services to prepare traffic signal PS&E.
The following locations are included in the ILA for new traffic signals or modifications to existing:
