SUBJECT APPROVAL OF APPROPRIATION ORDINANCE AND CONGESTION MITIGATION AND
AIR QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECT AGREEMENT WITH THE TEXAS
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FOR INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS ON 8TH
AVENUE AT ROSEDALE STREET (PROJECT NO 1 3-021 21 0)
The project is estimated to cost $800,000 The State and Federal share will not exceed seventy-
five percent (75%) of the actual cost of the project Costs in excess of the State and Federal
share will be borne by the City of Fort Worth The City's share of cost is currently estimated to
be 5200,000 Upon execution of the agreement, the City must remit payment in the amount of
510,000 to TxDOT for their review of engineering documentation and other incidental costs
Approximately sixty (60) days prior to TxDOT's awarding of the construction contract, the City
will be required to fund the balance of the City's share of project cost
8th Avenue at its intersection with Rosedale Street is a heavily travelled intersection with
increasing traffic congestion problems The construction of separate right-turn lanes on 8th
Avenue for both north and south bound traffic wanting to turn right onto Rosedale Street would
substantially reduce traffic congestion at this intersection, reduce delay times, and increase air
quality Property acquisition will be required in order to implement this project
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION
The Director of Fiscal Services certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and
adoption of the attached appropriations ordinances, funds required for this agreement will be
available in the current capital budget, as appropriated, of the Street Improvement Fund
