Background:
Approval of this resolution will authorize a construction contract with Environmental Allies, LLC, for the FM 518 & Wesley Drive Phase 1 Drainage Improvements Project (DR2010) in an amount not to exceed $2,845,262, authorizing an additional $284,526 for a Work Change Directive budget, and authorizing a construction material testing services contract with Terracon Consultants in an amount not to exceed $25,400, for a total construction budget of $3,155,188.
The project scope is to improve the existing storm drainage system along FM 518 (Main Street), South Wesley Street, and North Wesley Drive, consisting of removal and replacement of existing pipes with new 18-inch thru 36-inch diameter RCP’s, 5’×5’ thru 10’×5’ RCB’s with associated junction boxes, curb inlets, storm sewer laterals, headwalls/wingwalls, excavation and backfill, concrete and asphalt roadway pavement work, and other items. The proposed storm system upgrade will outfall into Corum Ditch, improving stormwater conveyance in the project area.
Roadway improvements include removal and replacement of concrete and asphalt pavements, driveways, sidewalks, and pavement markings within the disturbed construction limits necessary to install the underground drainage infrastructure. Pavement restoration, including permanent pavement striping and markings, will be completed to match existing grades, configurations, and TxDOT standards upon completion of drainage work.
