Description/History
Price Road is currently a 22-foot wide asphalt street with pavement in poor condition. The roadway will be reconstructed to a new 26-foot wide asphalt roadway from the existing concrete pavement near South Main Street to East Dallas Street (approximately 2,700 feet). The project will also include bar ditch and driveway culvert improvements to improve drainage capacity where feasible.

The requested funds are for design services with Jerry Parche Consulting Engineers in the amount of $92,600.00, an additional 5% design fee contingency for potential additional scope of work, survey, and other miscellaneous services, all to be accomplished within a budget of $132,530.00.
