LOG NAME: 20EXTEND TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF PARKER HENDERSON
SUBJECT
(CD 5) Authorize Continuation of the Temporary Closure of Parker Henderson Road between David Strickland Road and 75 Feet North of
Willow Springs Mobile Home Park Driveway to July 31, 2021 for Construction Purposes
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the continuation of the temporary closure of Parker Henderson Road between David Strickland
Road and 75 feet north of the Willow Springs mobile home park driveway to July 31, 2021 for construction purposes.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Fort Worth Transportation and Public Works Department (TPW) requests extending the closure of Parker Henderson Road from
David Strickland Road to 75 feet north of Willow Springs mobile home park driveway to July 31, 2021 for the installation of storm drain boxes on
Prairie Dog Creek (City Project No. C01419). The request for this additional extension is due to ongoing and previously delayed utility
relocations by the various utility companies sharing the poles. Mayor and Council Communication (M&C 20-0359) authorized the initial road
closure through August 14, 2020.
Parker Henderson Road is a 22 foot wide asphalt roadway and is to be reconstructed from Mansfield Highway to E. Kellis Street over the next
several months. While it is planned to keep Parker Henderson Road open during construction and most of this upcoming project, the closure
affects the portion of the roadway over Prairie Dog Creek north of David Strickland Road where a new bridge is being constructed over the
creek. The closure is necessary as the size of the storm boxes being installed measures 11x11 feet. This section of roadway, as well as the
remainder of Parker Henderson Road, will be constructed with concrete. Local residents have access to their properties at all times, and
alternate access is provided to Prairie Dog Park.
Traffic control plans for this project have been previously accepted.
A Form 1295 is not required because: This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that approval of this recommendation will have no material effect on City funds.
