1 PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL PROJECTS UPDATE July 2016 ACTIVE CITY CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS Brumlow Avenue Improvements The Brumlow Ave improvement project will widen approximately 1400 linear feet of Brumlow by expanding the existing road to five lanes undivided in order to accommodate the TxDOT construction of dual left turns for SH 26 to north bound Brumlow. The design is at 100%. A future project, currently unfunded, will widen the remainder of Brumlow Avenue extending north to the existing roundabout at Continental Blvd. This project is under construction and anticipated to be completed Summer Citywide Pavement Rehabilitation (PMA) The PMA is an on-going program which consists of the major repair and/or rehabilitation of local streets throughout the City of Southlake to improve pavement condition and rideability after the completion of neighborhood utility projects. Onethird of the City s streets are surveyed annually with the Pavement Management Application (PMA) software designed by Stantec, which generates a pavement quality report. The PMA scores each street on the surface condition of the road (SDI), the riding quality of pavement (RCI), and the structural adequacy of the pavement (SAI). These scores are then averaged to calculate the Pavement Quality Index (PQI) for the roadway. The overall PQI for the City is the average of all the road s PQIs. The Department has established a minimum overall PQI of 7.8 out of a possible The current score is 8.2. FM1938 The FM1938 project involves paving, utility, and drainage improvements along the existing Randol Mill Road from FM1709 to SH114 to four lanes divided. Construction of FM1938 will be completed in two phases. Construction of Phase I from the bend in Randol Mill Road to SH114 through Westlake is complete. The Public Hearing on the entire project was held November 6, 2008 at the Cross Timbers Community Church in Keller, TX. Phase II right of way and easement acquisition by Tarrant County is complete. TxDOT construction is underway north of the FM 1709 intersection. The project is expected to be complete in late FM1938 Drainage Relief for Phase II This project will benefit those areas and drainage structures that are in need of rehabilitation in order to alleviate reported flooding and potential flooding due to undersized culverts or inadequate drainage. These improvements are included in the FM 1938 construction plans which are now underway.

2 PUBLIC WORKS Kirkwood Blvd Stockton to Tyler Drive The widening of Kirkwood Blvd is in preparation for the increased traffic flow due to the recent and upcoming construction projects in the surrounding area. The widened road will reduce traffic and improve ingress and egress from the surrounding developments. The project is in design and is 65% complete. NCTCOG-FEMA Flood Risk Identification Project The City of Southlake is working in conjunction with the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in an effort to update drainage studies for several creeks within the City. The purpose of updating the studies is to accurately assess water surface elevations along the creeks during heavy rain events. The seven (7) creeks being studied are in the southern drainage basin of Southlake. These creeks eventually reach Big Bear Creek. Final report is undergoing review. Nolen Drive Connector This project will complete the roadway connection of Nolen Dr. between Exchange Blvd. and Industrial Blvd. in Grapevine. This project is a joint project between the City of Southlake and the City of Grapevine. Grapevine has obtained the necessary ROW. The project is anticipated to begin Winter N. White Chapel from Emerald to SH114 This project involves paving, utility, and drainage improvements for the widening of N. White Chapel Blvd. from Emerald Blvd. to SH114 to its ultimate pavement section of four lanes divided. This project has been divided into two phases. Phase I extends from Emerald Blvd. to Highland St. and is currently at 95% design. Phase II is the continuation of the widening from Highland St. to SH114 including a dual-lane roundabout at the N. White Chapel Blvd/Highland St. intersection, and the design is currently 95% complete. Right of way acquisition is currently underway. Utility relocations from Highland to SH114 nearly complete. The construction project will bid in Fall of 2016 for Phase II. N. White Chapel at Ascot and Dragon Dr Traffic Signal The widening of White Chapel Blvd has facilitated the addition of a traffic signal at Ascot Drive and Dragon Drive. The signal will reduce delays and improve ingress and egress to Carroll High School and the Chapel Downs development. The project is undergoing design. Pearson Road 16-inch Waterline Improvements This project consists of constructing a 16 waterline from the Pearson Pump Lift Station to Johnson Rd. These improvements to the water distribution system will alleviate a bottleneck in the system when pumping into the upper pressure plane. Project is currently under design. Sanitary Sewer System Rehabilitation Program This project was the result of a three year Sanitary Sewer Evaluation Study conducted by RJN from FY2008 to FY2010. The final report from the SSES

3 recommended the rehabilitation of 358 sewer manholes including replacing manhole rings/lids, corbel, invert, clean-out, and point repairs, as well as street and pavement repairs resulting from activities associated with conducting the manhole repairs. These repairs were recommended in order to prevent inflow and infiltration of storm water and ground water which should lower the City s treatment costs to Trinity River Authority. No sewer rehabilitations done in Q4 FY15, remaining 36 manholes scheduled for mid Street Rehabilitation Partnership Program This is an annual project which involves the rehabilitation of arterial streets within Southlake in partnership with Tarrant County. The City of Southlake funds the costs of materials, and Tarrant County provides labor and equipment. The FY16 project is a reconstruction of Shady Oaks Drive from the northern property line of Bicentennial Park north approximately 3,000 feet the northern property line of 979 Shady Oaks Drive. Construction is currently underway and is anticipated to be complete by September Torian Lane Sanitary Sewer Lift Station This project consists of the design and construction of a sanitary sewer lift station at Torian Ln. to serve the Royal Oaks and Twin Creek Neighborhoods as well as future development along Torian Ln. Construction to begin July Expected completion in early Zena Rucker Culvert This project calls for culvert improvements for the crossing of Zena Rucker Road. The construction of a culvert is intended to facilitate the future extension of Zena Rucker Road. The engineering drainage study is complete. Construction will be incorporated with adjacent development. RECENTLY COMPLETED PROJECTS 8-inch Water Line connector from Lake Dr/Burney Ln to Palo Duro/Lonesome Dove This project involves connecting an 8-inch water line at Lake Dr. and Burney Ln. to the existing 6-inch waterline at Palo Duro and Lonesome Dove by installing 1600 feet of 8-inch PVC. The new line will provide increased water pressure and flow, and will establish a loop for fire protection to the Dove Estates Subdivision. This section of water line is located on the Southlake 2030 Master Water Plan. This project is substantially complete. 12-inch Water Line Extension on West Bob Jones This project involves installing a 12-inch water line in order to provide water service to the properties along West Bob Jones. The installation of the waterline will provide fire protection to nearby properties and allow for development in this area, which is currently vacant land. Construction of Phase I is complete.
