title

Request by the Office of the Purchasing Agent for approval to rescind an award from Times Construction, Inc. in connection with an award approved by Commissioners Court on December 19, 2023 for construction of trails and undercrossing at Fry Road along South Mayde Creek for Precinct 4, the project will be readvertised at a later date with revised specifications (230385).

Background and Discussion:

The Fry Road Undercrossing project encompasses the construction of various pedestrian amenities along Fry Road, South Mayde Creek, and east/west sides of Fry Road, both north and south of South Mayde Creek. Additionally, the project includes the construction of a pedestrian undercrossing at Fry Road. As a result of a utility conflict impacting the project’s construction schedule and budget, the project will be redirected in a different direction.

 

Expected Impact:

The improvements along Fry Road and South Mayde Creek will not be constructed, and a different approach will be pursued for the project.

 

Alternative Options:

Court may elect not to rescind the award, and HCED can explore additional options.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

_ Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

X Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

_ Governance and Customer Service
