This project has Regional Toll Revenue (RTR) funding from North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) in the amount of $1,920,000.00 for construction. City of Fort Worth is responsible for funding engineering, surveying, right-of-way acquisition, project management, inspection, material testing services, and a minimum of 20% of the construction cost. The City will also be responsible for any cost overruns. On September 16, 2025, M&C 25-0812 appropriated funding from interest earnings from Fiscal Year 2025 for the required local match. Construction is anticipated to be let by the City of Fort Worth in the Fall of 2027. At the end of the project, the assets will remain with the City of Fort Worth.

Funding for this project was not included in the Fiscal Years (FY) 2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program because grant funding is appropriated at the time of the grant award. The action in this M&C will amend the FY2026-2030 Capital Improvement Program as approved in connection with Ordinance 27979-09-2025. A Form 1295 is not required because this contract will be with a government entity (TxDOT). This project is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2. This contract will be with a governmental entity, state agency or public institution of higher education. FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION The Director of Finance certifies that funds are currently available in the Panther Island Bridges Phase 1 project within the General Capital Projects Fund and upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinance, funds will be available in the General Capital Projects Fund for the Panther Island Bridges Phase 1 project to support the execution of the Advance Funding Agreement. The Transportation & Public Works Department (and Financial Management Services) will be responsible for the collection and deposit of funds due to the City.
