samplers, respectively. In addition, rock encountered will be evaluated by
use of Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) cone penetration
tests. A soils logger will extrude the samples in the field, check the
samples for consistency with a hand penetrometer, carefully wrap them to
preserve their condition, and return them to the laboratory for testing. A

o grain size analysis
o liquid and plastic limit determinations
o unconsolidated underdrained triaxial tests on soils
o unit weight determinations

DISCUSSION:
Previous approval was sought and received for the design of a roundabout at the intersection of Mark IV
Parkway and Cantrell-Sansom Road. In order to assure the proper alignment of traffic lanes and physical
improvements, Mark IV Parkway south of the intersection must be fully designed as well.
Improvements to Mark IV Parkway are included in the upcoming Bond Program and having this design
work completed now not only assures a better roundabout project but also provides for an accelerated
delivery of those Mark IV Parkway improvements.
