DISCUSSION:
On June 23, 2009, Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) entered into a 10-year Agreement with North Tarrant Express Mobility Partners
(NTEMP) to identify and construct highway improvements in northeastern part of Tarrant County including portions of Interstate Highway (IH) 35W,
IH 820, and State Highway (SH) 183 corridors within the City of Fort Worth (City). TXDOT and NTEMP control the schedule timeline, the scope,
and the total cost of this project. These improvements affect the City's water and wastewater infrastructure which often require relocation.
On July 9, 2015, the City executed an administrative engineering agreement with Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., in the amount of $49,500.00
for design oversight and project management services on North Tarrant Express Segment 3C on IH 35W from United States Highway (US) 81/287
to Alliance Boulevard. The Agreement was subsequently revised by Amendment No. 1 in the amount of $120,000.00 authorized on September
13, 2016, Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) C-27910, that provided for additional design oversight and project management on the
project.
Amendment No. 2 will provide the following additional services as NTEMP continues to expand the limits of the highway project:
• Project management
• Plan reviews of drawings provided by the contractor or other engineers
• Construction support services including attend preconstruction meetings, on -site observations, construction progress meetings, and shop
drawing reviews
• Project meetings with the City, stakeholders, contractors, other consultants, and citizens
• Conflict analysis along IH-35W.
In addition to the contract amount, $100,000.00 ($50,000.00 water, $50,000.00 sewer) is required for project management and inspection.
NTEMP will reimburse the City for this amendment and future amendments as needed for this project. The design and construction of the water
and sanitary sewer extensions west of IH 35W, are located outside TXDOT's project limits, and are not eligible for reimbursement.
