Requested Action
Consider the authorization of funding and approval of the contract.
Recommendation
Approval of a professional services contract between the City of Mansfield, TX and Westra consultants in an amount not to exceed $53,200.00 for the design of Matlock Road Left Turn Lanes at Country Club Drive and Cannon Drive.
Description/History
This project is an intersection improvement in the 2022 Street Capital Improvement Plan. The primary component is a northbound left turn lane at Country Club Drive, and a southbound left turn lane at Cannon Drive. The turn lane approaches currently do not provide enough stacking causing traffic to back up decreasing the efficiency of the traffic signals and congestion at the intersections. Increasing the stacking spaces will provide a significant reduction in delays. To assure safety and improve intersection capacity the improvement will also necessitate improving the traffic signal operation, which will be completed by the Street Operations Department after the project is complete.
The requested funds are for design services with Westra in the amount of $53,200.00 which includes survey services and subsurface investigation needed to prepare the project for public bidding and construction, for a total budget not to exceed $53,200.00.
Justification
This project is included in the 2022 Street Capital Improvement Plan.
The Director of Engineering Services will be in attendance at the meeting to answer Council’s questions regarding the proposed funding and contracts.
