The Colleyville City Council agreed April 7 to pay Ed Bell Construction Company $14.2 million for work on Glade Road.
With this project, the city will upgrade the condition on 1.5 miles of the road from SH 26 to Pool Road.
Work to be completed for this project includes demolition of existing roadway, concrete and asphalt paving, installing a roundabout at Riverwalk Drive, side street improvements, driveways, sidewalks, storm drainage, pavement markings and signage, sewer line improvements and water line improvements, according to meeting documents.
The $14.2 million does not include work to lower the hill at Blubonnet Drive. That part of the project will be paid for with federal grant money.
Also on April 7 the city agreed to pay Texas Material Group Inc. $1.4 million to install a roundabout at the intersection of McDonwell School Road and Westcoat Drive in Colleyville.
The project work will include storm drain installations, minor utility relocations, concrete paving, asphalt paving, traffic control detouring, pavement markings, signage, erosion control, and vegetation, according to meeting documents.
For work to be done, the intersection of McDonwell School and Westcoat will be closed for construction from May 29 to Aug. 17, according to meeting documents.
Both projects are part of the city’s Capital Improvement Program that was approved Sept. 17, 2019. Glade Road improvements will be paid for with money from the Tax Increment Financing fund. The roundabout installation will be funding through the city’s roadway impact fees.
